This time around I hitchhiked with a team mate who was on his way to Strasbourg France.
Strasbourg is approx 2 hrs drive from Frankfurt. The 2 hr Drive was very confortable. Roads are very good and Traffic is also Lane centric and well-behaved :).
we Cruised along nicely on the AutoBahn....
Once we reached Strasbourg outskirts, we saw some Desis...immediately giving us the French feeling where outsiders are welcome to settle down.
The City of strasbourg draws many visitors from across the Globe. Its still a very very old-fashioned city. We had some French Dish..which appeared to be a Roti albeit slightly uncooked :-)
But yes our Hunger was so much we finished it in a Jiffy..
then we went to the Church @ the City centre...then we roamed around the City in the Volkswagon to get the Crash reported on one of the Phones. After seamless sorties we could not get the thingy...
our German Driver all along did a nice job of the driving effort. While on our way back we missed one of the Highway Entrys...straying into the French neighbour hood...
This gave us some more insight as to how different the French and the Germans are!!!
all along our German Driver Stephen drew french people's attention.
The French are not that Heavily built as germans are../
He was six feet 5 inches and was dressed in complete formal(to the core :) with a nice Tie ).
We were feeling out of place to walk along side him as we were dressed in Jeans and a Casual shirt.
Well the day ended with some Schumi-style driving by Stephen as we had to cover up around 30 mins of lost time...
This was one of the very good experiences of mine in Europe till date.
