After
the worst thunderstorm either of us have ever experienced lasting
more than two hours with forked and sheet lightning and claps of
thunder to rattle the van, we woke early to sort out the electric
which had been off all night. Jobs done we left for short journey to
Neuf Brisach just before the German border for a couple of nights.
Finally the sun came out and it warmed up again, the lovely campsite
was a short walk from the walled town a Unesco World Heritage Site
1699. Had a good explore round the place and bought some delicious
quiche and onion tart for dinner.

A
glorious sunny day 26oC we drove 7 km to the edge of the Rhine/ Grand
Canal D'Alsace and walked and walked! Saw the expensive Viking
Cruises boats then walked over the bridge into Germany and explored
Breisach am Rhin, a delightful old town.
