On an overcast and humid day we visited Bordeaux which is a city of about one million people. We only had the one day – you certainly need at least two – so we decided on a bus tour and a visit to the modern wine museum.
We would have liked to walk around the city some more, however, we chose to do the bus tour so we could get a good look around as much of the city as possible.
Here is some of what we saw on the bus tour. Bordeaux has some very impressive buildings and avenues.
The craftsmanship on the window and balcony supports is impressive – and it is not just one – the whole building front has the same detail on every window and balcony.
The Garonne river was murky as we crossed on the bus.
We then made our way to the wine museum. On arrival we realised that the museum tour went for two and a half hours, so we had to make do with just seeing the bottle room and the souvenir shop … oh well, we may have to come again if we ever get back to France. Jim was very impressed with the bottle room!
