On my first day at Metz I walk along the river Mosel, explore the western part of the historical city center and encounter three very different churches.

During our two-day visit in Colmar we walk through the historical center, make a boat tour, and visit several museums, including the Musée Unterlinden which contains the famous Isenheim Altar.

We ascend the cathedral and enjoy the view from its towers, visit the museum dedicated to Jean Tinguely and return home swimming in the Rhine.

As part of my vacation I visit friends in Basel. We tour the city, ascend the cathedral and even swim in the Rhine. We also make a boat tour to Rheinfelden and visit the brewery there.

End of April there was a wine tasting at Rust am Neusiedler See, the so-called "Ruster Weinschätze". I meet some friends there and taste some excellent wines. Because I travel publicly from Vienna, I make a stop at Eisenstadt and stroll though the historical center. I also visit Esterházy palace.

Last weekend I decided to cross a few things off my places-to-visit list. I decided for the theme of the middle ages and paid a visit to the inner city.
