Day 5 – France, Burgundy Wine Region.
Weather – Hot! Very very hot!
We arrived at this amazing chateau in one of Burgundy yesterday afternoon. Pulling up the sweeping drive and seeing the amazing old building with the pool out front and the sprawling lawn I was instantly teleported back in time.
I could imagine arriving in a horse-drawn carriage, the roadway lined with large candles, and various members of the social elite engaged in one high brow activity or another. Pulling myself back to reality as we all clambered off the bus there was a distinct buzz of excitement in the air.
We selected rooms and met in the entrance area, I say area but cavern would do it more justice. It was a huge space, perfect for welcoming lords and ladies and for looking important. This group however was discussing the fact that the dungeon area down the stairs had been converted to a bar. Which if I’m being honest sounded like a brilliant modern-day use for a dungeon.
