So upon arriving in Lyons we drove up and through a beautiful set of vineyards, some of us feeling a little worse for wear after the gallons of free alcohol the night before! And what better way to get over the hangover than hair of the dog eh?! So wine tasting it was, I'm not gonna lie, I'm not red wines biggest fan so I had the smallest sip known to man, and I'm no connoisseur, but it was alright I guess!
Next it was time to unpack...so, bunk beds and the smallest room for 4 known to man! If you know me and how I like to spread my shit everywhere, you'll be impressed by the fact that I managed to keep it all security under the confines of my suitcase! We got changed out of our travelling clothes and headed for the bar! Yes the chateau had everything in it, a pool, a bar, a club, it was literally the perfect place to just chill and get to know everyone that little bit better!
Drinking games with another contiki group who were already there involved throwing stones at one another (kinda strange) but they seemed like a pretty rowdy bunch, so we went with it and the booze kept coming! Anyway, it did he trick! Next up was our first official party together as a group, the P party! Yeah you guessed it, everyone had to dress up with something beginning with P, so seeing as everyone kept getting me and Emma confused we decided to go as 2 peas in a pod, which I thought was pretty original!
The drinking carried on from the early evening which meant that people were well on their way by the time the cave was opened! (The cave is the chateau's club). It was a fun filled, getting to know new people, encouraged by alcohol, kind of night and the scandal was in large supply!
Daddy's little girl was introduced ...if you know, you know!
With hangovers in high supply we were all waiting patiently for the pool to open at 11am so we could cool off and wash our sins away!
Spending the entire day chilling in the sunshine and playing in the pool we exactly what everyone needed to mingle and also recover from the start of the full week we'd had! A couple of competitive vollyball games and a cute French picnic for lunch, we all felt well rested enough to start the drinking again at 2 pm.
Welcoming the second contiki tour at around 6 ish...now we probably seem like the rowdy ones! And in tradition of the chateau we introduced them by carrying on the drinking games and getting to know everyone better until the early hours and then calling it a night at about 1am! Tonight wasn't as crazy as the last as we all wanted to be well rested up for BARCELONA!
All in all I think everyone enjoyed the stunning chateau the most and no regrets were actually in place! In true contiki style, #noregrets was a winner for this trip!
Next up Barcaaaaa
