ANTICIPATION

Just over a week until our adventure begins! I don't feel prepared--there's so much to do, and I have to do it while working the entire time. Perhaps our lack of preparation can be turned to our advantage by letting the trip meander a bit without every second being planned. However, there are Logistics! For instance, we want to spend a day in Nancy on road from Obernai to Puxe. I spent about an hour yesterday figuring out that we can park our car at the southernmost station in Nancy for the tram at very low cost, then be in the center of town in 10 minutes (trams are every 15 minutes). If you don't research things like this ahead of time, you end up spending $25 to park in town, or even worse, getting towed.

The Holzinger village still eludes me. Oh well, if we ever discover its identity, we'll just go back.
