Rue de Vin "Thelma and Louise" Weekend




This summer my oldest and dearest friend and I took to the autobaun and headed to France to explore the Rue de Vin.  The Rue de Vin starts just outside of Strasbourg and extends about seventy miles through the Vogues mountains. It covers the Alsace wine region which are known mainly for their fruity white wines.

Having planned this trip a few months in advance, I had anticipated being able to enjoy the aforementioned wines. What I hadn't counted on was that I would be 10 weeks pregnant when headed out on this adventure. So...although I couldn't enjoy the "Vin" part of the Rue, the Alsacian villages, the patisseries, the rolling vineyards, and of course the company, made the trip a wonderfully memorable one.
