Everett and I decided to head south along the border of France, through the black forest and into Switzerland for a day. We left on an early train and arrived in Basel by mid-morning. We found a brochure at the train station which held 4 exellent walking tours, so we set off on foot.

We stopped at a street cafe and ate a very yummy breakfast and watch the people bustling around while drinking our coffee.Rathaus
Elizabethen Cathedral
These guys were laying cobblestone streets. Very cool.
Munster Cathedral
Munster Cathedral is made of red sandstone. Originally a catholic cathedral built between 1018 and 1500.
Church of St. Peter
Gateway into the town of Basel. The Spalentor dates back to the 14th century.
They are very bike friendly. Here is a ramp to roll your bike up and down....or ride it?
On the train back, Everett was sitting across from me. Then he moved over beside me, because this elderly German woman was staring at him and muttering things in German while giggling in a way that sounded a bit insane. (she was so cute)
By the late afternoon, we decided to head back to Holzgerlingen to spend some time with the boys before bedtime, so we caught an earlier train.**
