    I am so happy for Esther being in France for her senior trip. I had always wanted to go to France after high school but it did not work out for me. So, Esther, I am an 83 year old lady who will take this trip with you, just don't walk too fast. LOL. Thanks for sharing, have a Blessed day.

    FIVE years ago!!?? OMG. I can't believe I've been watching you that long (I found you while you were still on your RV trip across the US). Yes, Mike, you guys not only made the trip with all of the children, you vlogged it as well. I remember those videos. You also didn't make it seem that hard. Let that be a lesson to us all, that we don't see even a fraction of the real difficulties and effort that goes into making these videos you so generously share. Thank you!!

    I live in Paris and been to Colmar three times this year. Although the best time to go is during Christmas (whole city turns into a Christmas village), I suggest you to visit the chocolate museum, eat flammekueche at the restaurant in the covered market and take the bus to go to the vineyards/ little villages next to the wineries ! Bisous de Paris and have a great time in beautiful France

    your main dinner is called "Choucroute Garnie" - I dream of this - the sauerkraut was most likely sweeter than you are used to, right? I spend lots of time in Alsace in college - I lived in Lingolsheim, a suburb of Strasbourg. If you get a chance to eat Tarte Flambe - try it! sooo yummy. a regional specialty, too. Usually more of a fall dish, but I bet it will be around. It's a flatbread pizza style with a creme fraiche sauce and onions.

    On our trip to France in 2019 I was afraid to book our train to close to our arrival time in case of a delay. It was the kids first trip to Europe and we ended up landing early. Such a blessing that we had hotel points and used some for a day room at the hotel there. We also learned it is just easier to show people your ticket trying to take your seats in the train - whatever seats you choose someone else will show up and claim so just make it easy on yourself and boot em. 😜
