Hi there,
I will be staying in Lacanau this week, but for three days I will be taking a course in downtown Bordeaux. I need to be in Bordeaux for 9:30 every morning until 5:30 and will need to get my way back to Lacanau.Is there a transit bus or train that does this route? Thank you!
Note that the 0710 bus from Lacanau only goes as far as the Merignac tram station, from there it is another 25 minutes to the city centre - and another ticket.

is the timetable for the Ligne A trams Merignac - Bordeaux.
thanks so much for your reply! it was very helpful!
i now realize how difficult and time consuming it is to get between the two towns... my bad, i should have been better with my research. i decided to get a hotel in bordeaux for the 3 days and my boyfriend will stay in lacanau. i'll meet him there later... spending that many hours a day in transit is just too painful, especially when you are on holiday! thanks guys for your help!
Sorry for any confusion - when I said '0710' above I meant the 07.10am departure. It is of course route 702.
If you have never being to Bordeaux before, I will advice you visit St Emilion if you really love French wines. You have the opportunity of tasting any type of wine for one Euros, or for free in some cases if you end up buying the particular wine. Just Wine everywhere.
As you drive through Bordeaux, vine yards are scattered everywhere. This area has an outstanding microclimate and unique soils. Though the soil is composed of stones, sand, gravel, clay, silt.
In St Emilion alone, the average anual production exceeds 250,000 hectolitres.
It's got to be wine-tasting. The Tourist Office has a regular afternoon session with a talk, sampling of aroma samples and - of course - a tasting of several fine Bordeaux wines with cheese in a nearby resaurant.
We were walking around trying to get our bearings when we approached this huge open area, almost like a square or plaza. Located here is this building, somehwhat grand and impressive with its white wash finish. Neither of us had any idea what this building was but we did spot a few statues of what looks like judges guarding each side of the building. I later learned that this buiding is the Palace of Justice.
Located in the same "square" is the Hospital.
The Place du Parlement is a large square for walking and relaxing. In season the half-dozen restaurants have outdoor tables for dining. They range from simple and inexpensive to the finest seafood restaurant in town (See our Cez Philippe Restaurant Tip). At the center of the square is a fine fountain. Enclosing the nicely paved square are fine buildings in Louis XV style (mid 18C). Some have arcades at the ground floor and decorations on the upper rims of the main floor windows, called mascarones, fancifully decorated heads which grin down at the observer.
