June 7, 2023,Elsass - Runde durch das "Storchennest" Muttersholtz

No Alsace tour without canals, none without storks. Particularly impressive today in the village of Muttersholtz. There was a lot of air traffic there, many hungry stork chicks wanted to be fed. Meanwhile, our appetite was stimulated by the Alsace Liesel with her Bundt cake - it was delicious!
