I have to say that from the time I used to do a bit of carpentry I always found goggles and safety equipment intrusive.

LocalHero1953 Posted June 8, 2019 Share #5910 Posted June 8, 2019 I've spent a week walking through the vineyards around Bordeaux. I started at the northern end of the Medoc, where I booked this Airbnb in Lesparre for the first night, and walked south east, ending somewhere round Sauternes. Thereafter I went where I decided on the day, booking on my phone by AirBnb, Booking.com and Google Maps accommodation options. The earliest I booked was the night before, but typically I made a reservation at lunchtime or later. I went for chambres d'hôte where I could, for the sake of the people I'd meet. A characteristic bedroom in a typical house in an old town. The landlady gave me a long and sympathetic discourse about Brexit, then congratulated me on my French; I'd said hardly anything. I carried a CL + 18-56 and 11-23, using the latter most of the time. Another time I'd take the Apo-Macro-Elmarit-TL instead of the 18-56. Welcome, dear visitor!

Really lovely series and looking forward to seeing more, your trip sounds perfect to me. My husband and I used to drive down through France for long holidays in Portugal and Spain, so we could take the dogs. We many times stopped in small Gites in the Bordeaux area for three or four days on the way down and the same on the way home, it's a beautiful area of France, with so many Vineyards to test😀. Sadly no one ever complimented my French so well done! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly no one ever complimented my French so well done! Thank you, Jayne! I enjoy walking through wine growing areas because the fields provide so many easy to find footpaths. Booking accommodation for the night on the day itself gives a great feeling of independence and no-plan chillout. And the wine areas of France and Germany are such great landscapes too - not just flat plains. And if you're also interested in wine...... My French is not great, but enough to get by, and have a conversation with anyone willing to talk slowly! (which most people were) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LocalHero1953 Posted June 8, 2019 Share #5919 Posted June 8, 2019 (edited) They went out for the evening to play cards till late, leaving me and their dog to mind the house. They told me to eat my takeaway pizza (nothing else was open) in their kitchen, gave me a bottle of local red Graves, sat down either side of me and chatted till time for them to leave. They'd only met me a couple of hours earlier. CL+11-23 Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members!
