On first impression, Bordeaux was a very pretty city, pretty much in keeping with France so far. My companions had a different view, seeing piles and piles of dog droppings without any apparent dogs. Nevertheless, Bordeaux was just what we needed, a quiet break before the mayhem that would be San Sebastian.
Our days there consisted of wandering through the town, have coffees and croissants, playing some hackey in the park – only our last night was at all big, playing some inebriated soccer at midnight with some locals. Sadly, we lost. Even more sadly, there were 2 of them. Most sad, they were 5. Oh, and I was wearing the Australian flag as a cape, so everyone knew we were Aussies.
Still, while we enjoyed our break from the hectic life of partying that is our Eurotrip, we were anxious to hit San Sebastian and more importantly the coast, so after 2 days we bid Bordeaux farewell and continued our journey.
