I'm in Bourgogne (Burgundy for the anglophiles) in France. Me and the red bag are taking ourselves through vineyards in the renowned Cote d'or region. Basically I have a map, hotels are booked for me and on y va (yella for the arabphiles).
Today I walked about 10km, though likely more like 15 given the amount of times I got lost and had to backtrack. There was also a moment when I had to do some scrambling up old limestone stairway that was definitely not part of the route. It hit me when I was in the forest and almost sprained my ankle that you guys don't really know where I am... so the itinerary can be found at http://www.discoverfrance.com/. I'm on day 2 of the Burgundy Vineyard Walking Tour.
Its beautiful here, I am having daydreams of buying an 18th century home in the hills and becoming a viticulturalist. Though I don't quite know yet what such a job would entail.
More soon... am off to do some much deserved wine drinking in the town of Gervet Chambertin!
