French Countryside



We’ve spent several hours driving around Germany, France, and Switzerland just getting a feel for the outskirts. We’ve noticed a lot of cars parked along the side of the road and walking in wide open fields. It’s sort of a strange sight, but it seems a very popular past time. We decided to do the same this weekend and went to a nearby town in France called Steinbach. They have quite a large forest area with lots of walking trails and the history of metal mines in the area (we couldn't read any of the signs, but guessed from the pictures what they were talking about). We agreed it’s just like Turkey Run only with no water feature and all the trails go up at a 45 degree angle. Robert got some great pictures and the elevation got our hearts pumping to keep us warm. You can see more pictures from this trip here.
