aut_2337.jpg The total eclipse lasted only about 30 seconds or a minute, it's hard to remember. Anyway, only five minutes afterwards the sky was covered with clouds and it started raining. Unbelievable timing! We walked around in the village for a while.
aut_2338.jpg On the way back we had a few hour stop at Colmar, a town full of interesting looking houses.

aut_2344.jpg On the way back we were again stuck in the traffic, this time for several hours. We had a lot of time to play cards, write postcards, read, chat or just sleep. Finally we arrived at 2.00 in the night, special thanks for the driver for an extra long shift.
