About an hour south on the autobahn is province lorraine and the magnificent French countryside. Almost every building you see is eroding away and crumbling from the 300 something years its been standing, but still being used daily for farming and living. Off the main road tucked in a valley is the tiny little village of rodemack. Most of the houses here are from the 1600s and balancing on crumbles of stone. It is a crazy sight and and even touching the stones, you can feel the history. The walls surrounding le maison on the top of the hill had huge holes in them that were obviously from a cannon ball or some powerfully large intrusive weapon. After walking through the whole village we got back in the car and drove around the countryside, discovering new towns and different scenery for hours. Getting lost is the most fun because that’s when you find the best stuff. I love france!
