今天的天气真好，还好我们选择了出游到法国的一个小市镇 ~ 斯特拉斯堡去走走。一大早我们便从卡尔斯鲁厄坐火车出发。我们买了一张可以通往同一州里任何城市的火车三人团票。因为我们是从德国到法国去，所以还需要多买一张从凯尔到斯特拉斯堡的火车票，也因为我们在出发前已经先用手机上网购票了，所以我们只须搭乘火车到阿彭韦尔去再转车到斯特拉斯堡就可以了。到了阿彭韦尔只须跟着路牌走就可以到等候去斯特拉斯堡火车的地方去了。真的很方便！
The weather today are great. Luckily we decided to go and visit a small village in France ~ Strasbourg. We took a train from Karlsruhe early in the morning. We just bought a group ticket for 3 person, because we are travelling from Germany to France, so we need to buy another train ticket from Kehl to Strasbourg but we don’t need to go Station Kehl. What we need to do now was just taking a train from Appenweier to Strasbourg. When we reach Station Appenweier, we just need to follow the road sign and walk to the platform. It is convenient.
今天的我们并没有赶时间，所以到了斯特拉斯堡时就随便乱走。但是我们还是有目的地的，那就是去他们著名的教堂去。一路上所看到的风景真的真的很漂亮！！虽说是冬天，但是今天的天气也实在是太棒了，太阳和幸运之神太眷顾我们了，开心！
We are not in a hurry today, so when we reach Strasbourg, we just walk around to look at their beautiful scenery. We still have our destination ~ their famous church and the huge Christmas tree to go. Although it is winter now, the weather today is so wonderful; the sun loves us so much. Happy!!
原来每逢圣诞节即将来临时，欧洲国家的很多地方都会在著名的名胜地准备圣诞市集，让游客除了可以观光旅游胜地之外还可以逛逛圣诞市集，购买礼物及手信。在斯特拉斯堡的圣诞市集里我吃到了很特别的一个小吃 ~ 炸马铃薯泥饼。会说它特别是因为在我之前去的圣诞市集里，他们都是用来煎的，而且还是薄薄的一片，可是这次吃到的确是厚厚的一片用来炸的。重要的是它还是一样的爽口，好吃！
When Christmas is nearby, Europe country will have a lot of Christmas Market at the famous travel spot to let the traveller enjoy different scenery and to buy a souvenir from there. I ate a very special snack ~ deep fried mashed potato. Why is it special? Because other places use to pan-fried in a very thin piece only. This is different; they use it to deep fried in a thick piece. And most important, it was so crunchy. Yummy!
当然，我们也去了斯特拉斯堡为圣诞节所准备的大圣诞树去。现在我终于知道为什么他们的圣诞树和圣诞市集会出现在我去年读到的一个部落所介绍的“十个必去的圣诞市集之一”，因为他们的圣诞布置真的很漂亮。
We went to their huge Christmas Tree too. The Christmas Tree decoration here is huge, and now only I realise why I get to read a blog which introduces Strasbourg’s Christmas Market is one of the Top 10 ‘MUST’ go Christmas Market because their Christmas decorations are gorgeous.
好了，大家下次有机会的话也可以到斯特拉斯堡去走走看看哦。希望你们也会喜欢。
Wish you will have the chance to go and have a look in Strasbourg too. Hope you will like it too.
备注：大家去自助旅行的话可以购买团票，因为比起购买从一个地方到另一个地方去的个人票会便宜很多。而且团票还可以在同一天内无限次搭乘他们的火车。
