Saint-Émilion


imageSaint-Émilion is one of the principal red wine areas of Bordeaux. On the third day of our trip, we joined the local wine tour to visit this small nice town of wine. When we were strolling along in the town, I saw this French bulldog in front of a wine bar and was immediately in love with him. After traveling in France for three weeks I really started to miss Waffle. The one thing he reminded me of Waffle was his constant craves of food. I had a croissant in my hand, and that's how I tricked him into my photo...After the walk in downtown, we visited a really old historical winery which is now owned by the funder of BIC (which makes lighter, pens and etc.) The castles and wineries were fascinating to me, but I really enjoyed this trip of Bordeaux mainly because of my perfect travel mate Sunny. She was the coolest, most laid back friend to travel with! Let's do it again next year, Sunny Ho~ :)  imageimageimageimageimageimageimageimageimage

Wine trip in Bordeaux

imageOn the second day of our trip we took the tram to a winery in greater Bordeaux area, about 40 minutes from the city center. It was still cold in south France but I was grateful of the sunshine and the blue sky. Oh, and it was the first time I have ever been to a vineyard in France, and I was really impressed by the size of the vineyards! At night our couchsurfing host held a small party at his place. We enjoyed the music, guitar, appetizers, fun stories and of course, great Bordeaux wines.  :)imageimageimageimageimageimageimage
