Heather and I enjoyed some comp days this past week, getting rested up from our big Spring Break retreat to Italy. We drove down to stay with friends in the Black Forest on Wednesday and came home this evening. On our way home, we stopped in Strasbourg and spent time walking around the city center. The cathedral there is one of my favorites!
^The Strasbourg Cathedral
^From the front, looking to the back - the organ on the upper right is really cool.
^The stain glass is really pretty throughout the building, and the hanging light fixtures are really cool.
^ From the middle, looking forward towards the alter.
This was the location of the opening scene in the newest Sherlock Holmes! Unfortunately it rained most of the time we were there. But we were able to sneak into a cafe across from the cathedral for some hot coffee! And, we found some cute umbrellas to buy.
