Bordeaux

Bordeaux is a river port city that straddles the Garonne...


















It's a 45 minute drive from our house.




















Le Grande Theatre


We're going to see Casse Noisette (the Nutcracker) here
the day after Christmas...
we called a couple of weeks ago and got the last four seats!




























Our hotel, Tour de l'Intendance, right in the center of the old city.























Finally, the number one reason to visit Bordeaux according to a
couple of young world travellers we know.
