Leisurely day in Bordeaux

It’s down to the two of us now. Suzanne and Trudy left for Paris and San Sebastián respectively so we are left with me Barb and the city mapper app.
We’ve had another luscious day. We drifted into town for the required cafe and pastry then meandered through the shops and most of the length of Rue Saint Catherine the longest shopping street in France. Ticked off some shopping and generally just enjoyed the people watching - even the children seem to have style and flair and of course eating. Drifted home for a cuppa about three then set off to e plot the Garonne water front and the stunning water architectural feature called the water mirror. Then more food snd a farewell glass of champagne. Took the longer route home wishing the fore parents of Palmerston North had a bit more foresight with regard to design and flair (0/10).
Off at 10am on the train towards Paris to stay the night in a chateau. I can’t bloody wait! Well I can as am lapping this lovely city of Bordeaux up. The last photo is our air bnb. The top floor last three windows on the right.Read more
