We have just returned from our third visit to the village of Dambach-la-Ville in Alsace. Again, we rented an apartment, which is part of a farm. We had already stayed once before in this family’s farm house apartment on our first time.
After a three-hour drive from the Frankfurt area, we approach the Vosges Mountains in Alsace.
We have the upstairs apartment in the renovated barn.
The is the view from the windows down into the courtyard. Oops, we left the gate open.
My dinner was Quiche Lorraine with red cabbage salad, a mixed salad, and radish salad.
This village takes a lot of pride in its floral decorations. Everywhere you look, there are wells filled with herbs and flowers, recycled wine kegs turned into flower pot stands, and much more.
The most favorite ‘room’ of our stay is this stonewalled courtyard for our private use. We Germans like to call this outdoor sitting arrangement (be it a terrace, balcony, or whatever) our ‘second living room’.
The early morning sun found its way through a gap.
