Yesterday we booked into our hotel at 3pm and it was 31degrees. After doing the blog and having a nap
thank you Christine, we stepped outside at 8pm for dinner in a place next door.
Holy Crap ! It was 42 degrees! Strange how it gets hotter in the late afternoon here
We've been to Bordeaux before but always got lost in its horrible traffic . Quite liked it today. Very bike friendly and big open spaces
The trams look like something out of StarWars
The centre city is on the Garonne.
The lake is also inside the city limits.
We're going to follow the bike route from centre city to Lacanau on the coast
Through parks and beside a motorway then it follows an old railway line for the next 55 kms
A lot of it passes through a pine forest, the biggest in France, but the timber is apparently not suitable for building like ours, so is used for pallets and pulp
It's not as hot today but we check into a Chambre d'Hote, the 'tea salon' at 3pm again.
Our hostesses, Sabine and Juanita
