Traci's Birthday in Bordeaux

We've been in Bordeaux for the past 3 days and leave tomorrow for San Sebastian, Spain. It was Traci's birthday on the 25th and the weather has been really nice the whole time we have been here (25 to 28 degrees C). The nicest weather we have had yet since being in Europe. On the 26th, we went on a guided wine tour and visited 2 different Chateaus located in the Médoc region which mostly produces red wines. We enjoyed touring the cellars and sampling the wine each of the chateaus produced. It was great being in the French countryside on such a beautiful day.
