My cousins Marie-Paule and Christian took very good care of us during our stay in Rixheim. We got acquainted with the town on our first day.

The art, science, and mechanics of wallpaper production is on display. Jackie Kennedy used Zuber's "Views of America" to decorate one of the White House's reception rooms. She recycled it from a farmhouse that was torn down. The wallpaper was of such high quality that it could be removed from the walls of a farmhouse and installed in the White House looking none the worse for wear. |

Mike and I enjoyed a walk around town. |

This enormous lavender plant grows near my cousin's front gate. It buzzes with bees and it smells terrific. |

This wine press makes an attractive yard ornament since my cousins no longer make their own wine. |
