Our friend is very focused. She knows what she wants and Chanel is what she wants to shop. So, we brought her to Paris, Chanel Flagship store. It is also our first time there as well. It feels like we are in Takashimaya, with all the Chinese Tourist.

We still see as many tourist as a normal day would.

10 Days Road Trip - Paris, Munich, Feldberg: Day 2 - Day 5

Drive to Munich, Germany


09:00 Time
9 - 10 Hours Drive from Sens
22.40 Toll Fee
800 km Distance

The drive is 8 hours without any rest stop, but we have cater for at least 4-5 rest stops, and 1 lunch. Usually for drive trips, we will just settle for fast food. And we are there to try out their KFC too! And we also brought along our favorite Chilli Sauce.

Driving in France is boring, 130km/h and for the stretch of 300km, plus a rainy weather. It is so tiring.

And in Germany, you must also try out their Autobahn! The highway with no speed limit at certain sections. You will realise that even cruising at 160km/h there are still cars (especially BMW) poking your arse off! And even when you floor the accelerator, you may not be able to catch up with the cars in front too.

10 Days Road Trip - Paris, Munich, Feldberg: Day 6-8 (Snowboarding!)

The next 3 days we will be snowboarding in Feldberg. We chose Feldberg to snowboard is because the location is halfway back to Sens.

Instead of travelling 8-9hours back, we now only travel 4-5 Hours back. So the journey back will not be so tiring. And Feldberg Ski Area is the highest point, overseeing the Blackforest. So we should be able to see some snow. 

At the same time, most instructors in Germany speak English too. We have signed up for 2 days of snowboard lessons out of the 3 days.

Us and Mr Frostie!


10 Days Road Trip - Paris, Munich, Feldberg: Day 9

Today, we will be checking out of Feldberg Stay, and heading back to Sens. We initially plan for a shopping trip in Troyes.  But, it is closed on a Sunday, so while on the way back to France, we made a detour to Colmar, France  and visited Dijon since is it on the way back instead.

See: Petite Venice, Colmar


13:00 Time
In Case You Duno

The « little Venice » is the name given to the course of the Lauch in Colmar. This name probably came from the original line of the houses on both sides of the river, which serves the southeast of the city.

This district starts behind the Koïfhus, goes through the fishmonger's district and to the bridges Turenne and Saint-Pierre.
