Welcome to the Bordeaux Fete le Vin! By some luck we landed in Bordeaux just in time to enjoy the last day of the Bordeaux Wine Festival. What luck!

Here is Beverley, enjoying the degustation. Clearly, the photographer has been enjoying the local specialty as much as the photographee!

Here is Beverley and trays full of stinky cheese.

Here is Jack in the streets of St. Emillion.

This is our room in the wonderful chambre d'hôtes or bed and breakfast we stayed in outside of St. Emilion called Moulin de Moulins.  If you ever plan a driving trip, check out the Gites de France website for a listing of  bed and brekfasts all over France.  You can also purchase the Guide National Chamberes d'Hotes Prestige et Gites de Charme which includes a listing of excellent B&Bs in France.

Our gracious hostess Henriette at Moulin de Moulins.

Here is a shot from our tour of the house of Hennessy in Cognac where we were not shy to partake of their wares.
