We took the back roads to get back to Colmar and drove through three or four small towns. They are so close together and small it was hard to keep track. Luckily the Europeans have a system whereby they put up a sign as you leave town. The sign has the name of the town with a red stripe through the name of the town. That way you know you are leaving town. We had seen diagrams of the vineyards in this region and it looked like a crazy patchwork of owners and grapes. Seeing it up close we find that it is a crazy patchwork of owners and grapes. We passed some sort of a grotto, multiple cool flower displays, and one of the finest public restrooms we have ever come across. A great way to spend the afternoon. 
A mysterious grotto
Score three for the yellow houses
Each tiny town has its own tiny church or two
The turtle looks a bit flat
Have you ever seen so quaint a WC?
Love this door
Things are very tight in this town
The clouds were hanging in the mountains all day
Hair pin turns!
Coming down from the mountain vineyards to see another tiny town
Yes we have left Neidermorschwihr
The tinyest church yet
Vines as far as the eye can see
No self serve gas here
The clouds were everchanging and quite beautiful
