Day 5 - we started the day well having no problems catching the train the Bordeaux. Then the fun started after we picked up the hire car! I was starting to panic when the sat nav couldn't locate the satellites but fortunately it did finally. Driving on the right wasn't so bad but navigating through the maze of streets in Central Bordeaux was a nightmare! The sat nav had to recalculate several times and the girls counted that I was beeped at 4 times and swore 6! It also didn't help that the car was a manual and I had to remember to change gears!
The hotel is more like serviced apartments so we have a kitchen, 2 separate bedrooms and a lounge area. We went to the supermarket and got food for the next 2 days. Going to explore Bordeaux by bus tomorrow!

Sue Frey Well done driving in France. Sometimes the small town lack road signs making it hard to get your bearings. Good to hear you are all safe and having fun. Jolly cold here with a fresh dumping of snow down to low levels. Sue
