Week 48 2014

Hello!

Plenty to see at the Quinconces in Bordeaux

Oh my!  A month until Christmas… and 19 degrees outside yesterday.

The Antiques Brocante in the Quinconces is well under way in Bordeaux and if you are looking for something a little different as a Christmas gift then why not head over there to take a look.  It continues until 7 December, so you can combine it with a visit to the Christmas market in the Allees de Tourney which opens this Wednesday.

Whatever you do this week, have a lovely time in the Gironde and Dordogne Regions.

Best wishes,

Helen
