We were the first to be picked up by the tour guide, Olivier, at 9am, then we went to pick up the rest of our pack - a retired American, and finally a middle-aged couple from England. We were a small group of 5 ready to embark on our wine-tastic journey.
We visited castles, churches and vineyards throughout the day. We knew lunch wasn't included on this trip and that the restaurant he was planning on taking us too was quite pricey. So we did what normal budget tourists do and stocked up on croissants before we left Lyon.
Needless to say, it was a pretty long day to just be running on croissants and wine. So by the end of the second tasting, we weren't only the youngest people on the tour, I think it's safe to say... we were also the drunkest. Wait! Before you throw that disapproving look my way through your computer screen, know that we weren't plastered and sloppy... just a bit too buzzed for 4 in the afternoon.
Overall, the day was great. We had some fun, we made new friends and we learned alot. Here are some pics from the day. Merci Olivier :)
