Saint Emilion, town of wine - Day 25

Another slow start to the day as the morning run was cancelled due to heavy rain. No matter, as Tour Director had arranged a short drive to St Emilion and Kez still had to try to sort her cash card issue.

Leisurely breakfast and a car repack before we headed on to the right bank and row upon row of vineyards. 

Short wait to grab a car spot in the centre of town and dropped bags at our lodging before a heavy shower sent us in for an early lunch, as we couldn't get into our room till 3. A nice walk through this World Heritage hilltop town revealed the most wine shops and caves I have ever seen! It wasn't long before I spotted The Wine Buff, where Terry and Glen had spent a few happy hours just a fews days before.

Kez was inside and sitting at the tasting table before we had a chance to look around! The Irish host, Paddy was home resting, but his delightful Spanish wife gave us a wonderful little tasting and Kez made a few more purchases than we can possibly fit in the car.

It's not all about food and wine though (but it does feature!) so we enjoyed the walk around the town especially as the crowds thinned. Dinner tonight at the restaurant a few doors down.
