The next day we continued to drive south toward Sarlat where they are famous for Fois Gras (goose liver). The countryside was even more spectacular then the day before! The French are very proper in everything! Aesthetically, their homes are very pretty, neat and tidy! Every where we went trees and hedges were trimmed and pruned just perfect! They even plant the trees in their woods and forests in nice neat rows! It was a feast for the eyes everywhere we went! I can only imagine what things will look like in a month or so when the trees have their leaves and the wisteria will be in full bloom!
We spent our second night in Bordeaux. I never imagined it would be such a big metropolitan city! We arrived pretty late to our hotel, so I think we drove through the wine country at night with all the vineyards. Wine is very affordable here! We picked up a fantastic bottle of Bordeaux for 2 euros!
Our third night we spent was in Biarritz which is right on the southwest coast of France. The day was bright and blue and I thought I was in La Jolla! Biarritz has beautiful cliffs and beaches and we even saw French surfers!! I felt right at home!
