Episode 18 Strasbourg

Strasbourg and Alsace are beautiful and fun to visit. Elyse takes us to the gorgeous region of Alsace--where she used to live--and more specifically to the city of Strasbourg. Annie also has strong feelings about Strasbourg having just visited and can't say enough good things about the gorgeous Cathedral, the gastronomy, the wine, and how generally pleasant the city is. This area is full of history, we discuss it going all the way back to Charlemagne. We also discuss the fact that control of the area kept going back and forth between France and Germany, and that makes for an interesting culture. Today what strikes visitors is that the the city is deeply rooted in European values and extremely welcoming. You're going to love it!
