Small town of Blois

EARLY MORNING START , the wake up call is at 6.45am. Cosmos tour has a luggage order where you leave your luggages at the front of your room and by the time you have had breakfast and return to your room to get your backpack etc, your luggages have been loaded up on the bus for you which is handy from my past experience with contiki and carrying your luggages up flight of stairs. The only downside to this is you have to put trust in the door men that your bags will end up in the bus.

After breakfast we board the bus for our drive down the motorway. It is 540km to our next sleeping stop. Our final destination is Bordeaux the wine country part of France.

Chateau and beautiful buildings

The ride is always rather boring and long & the scenery was just of green green grass and also grape seed plants which just bright yellow plants. The area is just beaming with yellow.

Our first stop is in the town of Blois. The town is small but its filled with beautiful chateaus.

We arrive and we are given some free time to explore the city. We head towards the main strip and take pictures of the very old buildings. Some made with wooden structure. Quite interesting.

It was then back to meet up with the group as we board the bus again for our next leg of the trip. We pass by a town named Vouvrey and here there are plenty interesting homes that are built into the rocks, from the coach , we can see the windows of these very unique rock homes.
