Members visit Bordeaux


Our bus departed Eymet at 08h30 on Thursday 16th January, with a large group of excited passengers bound for the stunning city of Bordeaux. Some of our party were planning to visit the shops to benefit from the January sales while others headed for the impressive Bassins des Lumières, the former submarine base.

Also on the list of places to visit were the Halles de Bacalan, a huge food hall offering everything from cappucinos to tapas, ice cream and sandwiches, The Cite du Vin, an interactive experience and museum focused on the theme of wine across cultures and civilizations.  The Musee d’Histoire Naturelle and the Musee des Beaux-Arts were also another choices.

There is something different for everyone in Bordeaux and it is never possible to see everything in one day.  I have no doubt that we will return.
