Every single person walking the "Tours" route seems to have bunched up onto the same schedule. Last night there were five of us in the 'pilgrim house'. So many of the places to stay along the way are closed for good, closed for September, for Sundays, etc that five at a time maxes out the capacity of a lot of towns along the way.*
Today's stage was 17km and tomorrow's 20km. The other four from last night snagged all the spots 17km out from Mirambeau so I kept going though tomorrow's stage and am now in Blaye.
I don't think Its technically Bordeaux until I cross the Gironde river tomorrow but it is unambiguously wine country. If things go as planned ill be in the city of Bordeaux tomorrow afternoon.
* The movie "The Way" opens for the first time in France on Wednesday. The five of us from last night might all go see it in Bordeaux!
