A Weekend in Bordeaux 10 - 12 Sept
The weather wasn't great on Friday in Uzerche, but a break allowed us to walk to the station rather than taking the car there. The train journey was long (around 4.5 hours each way), with two connections - but the trains were all punctual (both going and coming back) so, despite some connection times a low a 9 minutes, the journeys went without a hitch. The station was just outside the historical centre with a 30 minute walk to the hotel (also just outside the historical centre on the opposite bank of the Garonne). The Hotel des Voyageurs was a only a 2 star, but had great reviews on Expedia; mainly due to the delightful owner who simply couldn't do enough to make your stay as good as it could be. The rooms was nice enough and reasonably spacious and the breakfast was nice and reasonably priced. Friday night we walked to la Place Victoire, where I was to meet a friend the following morning, to see how long it took. We enjoyed ice-cream and frozen yoghurt - I was rather greedy.
