Day 9 – Strasbourg 17 Sept 2013

Another day of light rain as we venture out to check out the city. The main areas to checkout today are petite France and the cathedral.

Heading along the river we head to petite France, it is only a short stroll from the hotel, the buildings along the canal are all decked out with flower boxes and make for a pretty site. Covered tourist boats ply the canals taking what seems as a never ending supply of tourists for rides.

Making our way around the river we find the cathedral, it is not the usual French design as it has one spire and is quite well decorated inside, it is also made from red stone which is very striking.

As the rain settles in for the afternoon, we check out the large shopping centre across from the hotel before retiring for the day.
