Vacation from the vacation

Traditionally, we take a little mini-vacation after our big vacations. Due to the short and compact nature of this trip, we ended up doing it on our second last day.

We took the high-speed train to Mannheim, Germany to go and have lunch with our friends.

Whizzing through the countryside at nearly 200mph (300+ kph) we were there in a relaxing and comfortable few hours.

Lunch was at a hidden gem of a restaurant next to a horse farm. The food was excellent and we spent a great time eating and drinking and talking.

Afterwards, there was enough time to go to their house to help them take care of a bottle or two as well!

We were back in Paris in time for dinner.

What a day!

Espresso and a giant macaron on the station while we wait for departure.

Hello, speed monster.

A little champagne toast to our anniversary.
Who cares that it is 9:30am?

A wonderful meal with great friends, which included the best seafood salad we have ever had!

Taking care of our gift on the train.

It was a great day!
