2026-06-01 and 02 Pat and Chuck arrive

 Monday and Tuesday, June 1 and 2

 Monday, June 1



Pat and Chuck Bowen arrive at the Strasbourg train station at 5:30 tonight, so we have some chores to finish this morning before heading to Strasbourg in the afternoon. It was time to recycle the wine bottles from the past 3 months. Grocery shopping was on the list as were few last-minute chores.

A quick lunch at home and then we left for Strasbourg. We had about 2 hours to walk around Le Petit France before heading to the train station. It was a lovely day for a walk.











We traveled through city traffic to get to the train station where we found an easy place to park in a ramp a block from the train station. Dave had told Chuck to meet outside the train station if we don't see them on the platform.  We were a bit late and spent a goodly long time looking for them inside and outside of the main terminal entrance. Finally, I saw Chuck outside and we were able to connect and move to the car. We stopped at a rest stop on the way home and by the time we got home, it was time for Pat & Chuck to go to bed.

Tuesday June 2, 2026

Today is a rest day. Dave and I slept in until 8 and Pat and Chuck slept till noon. We still had croissants- only for lunch.  The afternoon was drizzly, so no one was in a hurry to do any sightseeing. Also, Pat was having issues with her leg due to the many hours sitting on a plane. But no complaints - catching up on news was a great way to spend the afternoon. We had apéros at 5:30 (inside) and grilled pork tenderloin for dinner. 

Too rainy to have apéros outside. Oh, well.
