27 june Bordeaux Fete le vin

Hello! We are back! Yesterday was our long ride day, so today we did a recovery ride and off we went to the Sunday 'Pasat Malam' style market by the pier. We will always go there just before they are about to close the shop, so that we get the best '1 for 1' deals. BUT...today, we waited and waited and waited for them to lelong, and they never did!! In the end, we just bought some small pastry and went to the Wine Fest!

This Bordeaux Fete Le Vin (wine festival) takes place every 2 years, and we are lucky enough to be around when it happened this time round. So we bought wine passes that allows us to taste the wine, although we know nuts about wine tasting..

It was really an eye-opener, as we see the crowd and people appreciating wine, or maybe pretending to appreciate wine, like us. There were also many foreigners that came here specially for this event. The main attraction for us was not the wine, but the food stalls! There were ice cream, cheese, meat, pastries etc etc.

Anyway we had a great time and till then, Sante!


Big posters all around the festival.


Good food!


Tim's favourite! CHEESES!


Calvin's favourite! ICE CREAM!


People queuing up for wine sampling.






Nice weather!



Santé to our friends in Singapore!


Calvin got really really red after some wine! or was it the hot chick that poured the wine for him.....hmmmm...he claims that it was the hot weather....yea right...






Ok...this bread is massive, half my body length, maybe can last for a month...


And when Calvin gets bored and feels 'strong' at night...


GRRRRR..... Calvin! You got to make an effort! Don't snore!!!



Calvin! I will shoot you if you snore again!!!!



Sleep.....yes...well protected from the mosquitoes=) Bonne Nuit!
