Contiki Chronicles, Day 4: Rain! Travel! Rainy Travel!

Have I mentioned that it rained for most of the time we were in Paris?

Well, I just did. And it also rained for most of the next day, when we were travelling from Paris to a small town outside Bordeaux, St. Emilion.

That wasn't really a particularly interesting day. It rained when we got there, we had to set up tents in the rain, and when the rain stopped and we decided to go out for a night on the town, we discovered everything was closed because the day after was the French national holiday, Bastille Day (in commemoration of the day when the French stormed the Bastille during the French Revolution).

So... yeah. Nothing particularly interesting there, although there was some minor trouble with the coach in the morning - the engine had cut out, and we couldn't figure out how to pull the battery out so we could jump start it. Still, it all got sorted out.


So... yeah. That's it for today.
