We arrived in Bordeaux and spent some time literally driving in circles trying to find our hotel. Yes, we had GPS but the addresses and the hotel were not marked well. After finally finding it, we dropped off the luggage, turned in the rental car and went for a walk. Bordeaux has lots of beautiful 18th century buildings along the riverfront and there was also a festival going on in the area so the town was really buzzing and lots of people around. We will have another day in Bordeaux at the end of our river cruise as well, so I'll have more to say about it later on. We finally managed to find an ATM that worked with our cards too, which was nice because we were starting to run low on the euro we had brought from home with us.
