4th June 09 - Dijon

After arriving & settling into the Ibis Hotel just a small walk from the train station, I ventured out to the Tourist Information centre to find out about this town. I was especially interested in the wine tours available in the surrounding area as I’d heard from a couple of people that the vineyards here are wonderful. I soon found out that the minimum cost for a 3-4 hour vineyard tour was 75 Euro (AUD150) & even then you were only visiting one or two vineyards to taste perhaps 6 wines. So I decided against the wine tours & bought some wine from the supermarket instead. To check out the countryside, you really do need a car for this area.
