    First Trip: Strasbourg and Basel

    Morning all!!

    Alright I have massive catch up to do in terms of blogs... soo these are gonna be really short!

    First Trip: Strasbourg (France) and Basel (Switzerland)

    We went for the May 7-8 weekend.  Two day trip and two cities spelled pain and it was painful.  I will talk mostly about the city I really like which is Strasbourg.  Strasbourg is a really nice city with this old city feel to it especially in the old part (the most tourist part).  We went around like crazy and saw some nice boat paths, took the boat ride.

    The city is known for being the European Union city with the office located there.  This building is a must see IT IS CRAZY!!! BIG! 

    Food: They are known for Onion Pie and Onion Pizza both i must say are reallllly good and u should not leave without getting some.  It is worth is to go to a nice restaurant and eat some there in the French Atmosphere.

    Best Part: Being in a city where u knew exactly what was going on b/c u finally understand the DAMN LANGUAGE!!! :) wow that felt good!  Also the scenery with the building is very typical old france style kind of like Beauty and the Beast set up.

    Basel (Switzerland)

    This city is ghetto :) ok ok it isn't but it is one of the crappiest u could see in Switzerland lol!  Alright so it is located right at the border of like three countries (France, Switzerland and Germany) kind of cool.  There is a point at which u can walk between all three countries. 

    Well that is as interesting as that city gets.  Anywhoo we rushed back to Stuttgart missed our train in Basel and came home really late.  We missed the local trains in Stuttgart had to grab a cab... man we were tired.

    Aight enough of this one, next trip!

    Oh and at the end of each trip we are to drink on the way home.  So that is me and Jeffers or Yeff (as the Germans call him) drinking champagne on the train ride home!
