Colmar, France

This place was a bit of a pickle to get around in a large vehicle i.e a caravan – our chosen transportation. There were some stressful moment associated with navigating tiny cobbled roads and pedestrians everywhere but alas we found a spot and started exploring.

My Colmar favorites:

• The cobbled streets; it reminded me of England and I wondered how many people had walked on them and the thousands, perhaps millions of life stories that had walked the town.
• Tudor style houses; they were and looked SO OLD! Some even looked like they might fall down if a big bad wolf started huffing and puffing.
• The pastel colors; they really know how to add some color to the landscape. I think I saw houses in almost every pastel shade.
• My locally designed and made apron; we were walking past this darling store and outside on the mannequin was a blue and white apron and I instantly wanted it.
• Dried mango; there were quite a lot of dried fruit stores and the mango was top notch
• Missionaries; I spotted some missionaries from our church and started chatting with them. I love that where every I go in the world the gospel is always bringing people together and building unity
• The flowers! Need I say more…?
