France - Next Up, Road Trip

Burgundy & the Loire Valley
When I booked the rental car I did it on a French website so I wasn't completely sure what I was doing.  It got even worse when we arrived to pick up the car - nobody there spoke good English.  So, as the clerk chattered away at me in French and I signed each piece of paper I knew something was going to go wrong.  When we got in our car, I noticed it was a standard, not an automatic.  It took a few days to adjust.  Good thing it came with GPS or we never would've made it.  We were headed to Bourgougne otherwise known as Burgundy with a short jaunt into the Loire Valley.

Our first stop was Auxerre, followed by Puligny-Montrachet, Beaune, Chateauneuf, Vezelay and finally Menetou-Salon.
