Hey my peoples; I'm still in Bordeaux but u may notice that my photo is of the Eiffel tower, that's because I am pretty soon going to hop on a train to get there. My friend Alan is going to meet me at the train station when I arrive this evening. I am said to say that I am leaving Bordeaux; I have had a very good time here. I would have stayed another day, but tomorrow the trains in France are on strike. Hopefully that will not last long, because I still need to get back to Germany via train, to come back home next Tuesday. Wine tasting yesterday was a neat experience, my problem with the tour was that they took us to so=so wineries. Where the wine was about 2 to 5 euros a bottle. And the wines were not really great. But the couple of friends that I met here at the hostel we were smart and brought some picnic items, including wine. Because we thought that the wine were were going to be tasting was quite costly, but the wine we bought at the store was sooo much better. I had a really great time none the less. I keep you updated on the latest in Paris as I approach the final leg of my journey.
