A Medieval Evening In Eguisheim

It was an evening of unforgettable experiences in the medieval town of Eguisheim. We were brought down into the family cellar of an amazing winery, stopped by a cafe with an unexpected surprise, and finished out the last night in Alsace with local culinary treasures. C’est magnifique!

In Love With Eguisheim

We made our way back to the wonderful little town of Eguisheim. Very likely my favorite town in the world, I couldn’t wait to walk through those medieval streets and see everything we could! We had amazing food, great drinks, saw the most beautiful contrasts, and settled in to a nice pub for a fun end to the night. What more could you want?

New Year's Eve in Niagara-on-the-Lake

New Year’s Eve! We brave the cold Canadian day as we venture to wineries (including one of our all time favorites) and grab a quick lunch before spending the evening with my first ever hockey game in Canada. GO DOGS GO!

New Year's Weekend in Canada

A long drive up to Canada deserved a stop off at the Flying Saucer diner in Niagara Falls. The next morning was cold and snowy, but a hearty breakfast and meeting a Hall of Fame hockey player at the Blue Line Diner was a nice warm up! We visited a few wineries, went down to the shoreline of a frozen Lake Ontario, and had an amazing night at our favorite British pub!

A Morning of French Wine

Our last morning in France we spend getting in touch with some local wine. We talk about terroir and its impact on wine as we taste some of the winery’s finest. Beth tours the church, and I get some medicine and reflect on the difference between our health care and that in Europe.

Riquewihr

Beautiful Riquewihr! We loved it here! Small but stunning town with wineries, cheese, old architecture, colorful buildings, and a fantastic tiny brewery! We got a keugelhopf pan, a nice wedge of cheese, and beer with absinthe!

Ribeauville

The beautiful town of Ribeauville! We found our cute hotel, then took to the streets where we enjoyed the scenery by the little square, marveled at the colors and the narrow streets, enjoyed a keugelhopf, met some nice people, and wound up sipping garlic brandy at a local distillery!
