Had a pleasant evening wandering around Bordeaux, with an appetizer at Vins Urbains wine bar and then some risotto on the terrace of the Intercontinental. Stayed at a somewhat fancy hotel, but apparently got the one room in the hotel with no real shower, not exactly what I was after. Nevertheless, quiet, comfortable temperature and slept well. Got up fairly early and packed and then went out to find a breakfast crepe. After that, Tram to the train station and then the super high speed train to Paris, about 2:20 to go almost 600km! 15 minutes from Paris it started raining and the forecast is for rain all week, a definite contrast from the sunny cheariness of Bordeaux. Apartment seems to be in excellent shape and is truly a pleasant and well located space. Did a load of laundry, picked up some groceries etc.
