Bonjour Bordeaux

After dropping Carmel and Maria at the airport , Jerome drove us to the train station in Biarritz and we waited for our train to Bordeaux. Our tour was now over.

We had 1st Class tickets, but somehow missed it as it was a very small section of the train. The journey to Bordeaux was uneventful and took about 2 hours. We arrived around 1 pm and grabbed a bite to eat at the station. We decided to walk to our Airbnb, located only 1.3 km from the station, as we weren’t due to check in till 3pm. Bordeaux is quite flat with wide footpaths, which makes wheeling suitcases pretty easy. We arrived at the apartment building a little early and I phoned our host Charlotte, who told us we could come up as the cleaner had just finished.

The apartment was wonderful. It is well situated with a great terrace that affords us wonderful views of Bordeaux. It was comfortable, spacious and quiet and had all that we needed for our stay. It was nice to be out of hotel rooms with a bit more space again.Læs mere
