Our class had a lecture on Alsace at 10am
We walked down to a bike rental place which exceeded my expectations as far as bikes go - and rented bikes for the day. Professor Hartmann with the help of her son who insisted on biking as fast as he could led us to Kehl, Germany which is just across the Rhine River from where I'm staying in France. We stopped at the pinnacle of the bridge and had a brief discussion on the importance of the river in accordance with the area. When we got into Germany we more or less played around in Kehl. Malik took us to a "children's" play area in a park down by the river. There was a climbing station that if meant for kids 8-12 years old out of every 5 children would produce 1 death and 4 gladiator-level-fitness kids. If that doesn't make sense -I'm just saying it was about 8ft off the ground at the lowest point and the only easy part about it was the 15ft tall slide down.

After we got back from Kehl - Rob, TC and I kept our bikes and cruised Strasbourg for quite a while. I guess we ventured to a less-undesirable part of Strasbourg which is very hard to find, but got to see a short bum-fight which almost turned into a small riot.
Bum-fight in Strasbourg ended promptly by Police
After everyone was nice and tired we returned our bikes and called it a night.
