The last days in France.

Well it's been a few days since I have done a blog post. Been tired from the trip home. So here here some pics from the last few days. What a trip!

A. The last winery visited. Also had the best wine.

B. Last menu, but not the best meal, unfortunately! Hope it is readable. In lower left corner you can see there is a 19.5% charge for service! NO TIPPING! I like it.

C. Pics of our rooms in the last hotel. 27 euros each! This is where the Spartans stay when in France! However it is better than paying 170 euros at the airport.

The trip itself was uneventfully, but long! 12 hours in one seat! A tight one too. At least they feed you, I couldn't do 12 hours on peanuts. Air France is very free with the wine too.

I hope to continue this blog with my travels in California wine country.
See Ya.
