Bonjour mes amis! Alsace's Route du Vin is a road in Alsace that connects vineyards, villages and forts since Roman days. The generally dry climate has made for very good wine. We decided to visit two villages along the wine road, Riquewihr and Eguisheim, where we stayed for the night. The German customs and tastes of this region were superb! In Riquewihr, a charming German village, we tried La Tête de Cacao which were meringue treats covered with different kinds of chocolate. Kendall tried a delicious German pretzel. That evening we stayed in the Hostellerie du Château which was on the main square in Eguisheim, and surrounded by more German Christmas markets. Eguisheim is a few miles south of Colmar's suburbs on the wine road and whose main road is built in a circle. This made for a few challenges finding our hotel!!!
