I said "goodbye" to Lyon and "hello" to Bordeaux in August of 2011. When I arrived here, these are some of the first photos of downtown Bordeaux that I took with my smartphone.]]></description>

Looking at the view this way makes me feel like I'm looking at a diorama.

I like it a laht.]]></description>

Short visit of Monmousseau, winemakers. The tour guide could use some work on her people skills and on faking enjoyment of her job. But making up for it is that one of the rooms looks like something out of Willy Wonka's factory minus the Oompa Loompas and you get a complimentary half glass of wine at the end. Notwithstanding the tour guide's lackluster performance, we got a case of the bubbly, half of which was consumed before the end of our stay in Blois. And the bubbly sure is tasty.]]></description>

While driving on a highway, street, or road, the "<em>brocante</em>" sign is a sure way to get the brakes on the car screeching to a halt.

Vintage and antique browsing rocks my world. ]]></description>
