Day 51 - Reims
28 August, 2011
Awoke early this morning. No sleep in or casual breakfast this morning. We finished packing, had a quick breakfast and loaded the car. At 8:00am we said a sad goodbye to our Chalet in Grindelwald and headed off. The roads were very quiet. There were almost no trucks on the road, so the drive was very comfortable. With a few stops along the way, we covered 700km until we arrived at our destination for the night in Reims. Reims is only 160km from Paris (CDG) airport, so an easy drive tomorrow morning.
After checking into our room, we headed into the centre of Reims. We headed towards the Reims cathedral. Its a very old and spectacular building where all the kings of France used to be crowned. Other than the cathedral, the centre of Reims was pretty quiet. No shops were open and only some restaurants. We found a pizza restaurant, had some pasta, and then headed back to our room for an early night.
