When we traveled to France this summer, we flew from Chicago to Basel, Switzerland. Basel is a beautiful city located on the Rhine, with suburbs in France and Germany as well as Switzerland. Our online friend, poetess and artist, Claudia Schoenfeld, met us in front of the beautiful Town Hall to show us her city. We walked for miles through the fashionable downtown as well as the streets lined with beautifully-kept old buildings. Here are just a few shots. I’ll be leaving from Basel tomorrow, but this time I’ll only see the airport.
