C'est aujourd'hui tout à propos de nourriture

well when you have to be ready at 6:30am and your hotel won't give you any breakfast, is it a wonder that thoughts turn to



We visited 3 lovely chateaux today.

First was Chamborg. Then on to Chenonceau where we had this fantastic lunch - not to mention very nice local red and rose wines.
The castle at Chenonceau was very interesting - although there is no way I would live in it in winter - the wood bill would be enormous.

Amboise was our last stop - much smaller but some great features, including the long 'tunnel' out where we thought we might be banished to the dungeons forever.....

    Your French titles are stretching the brain (maybe you could add some an English translation). Your trip is sounding great but I am not really sure about the 6.30am start - you must be heading off somewhere good. We head home tomorrow and 25 degree days in Hervey Bay will be but a memory. Keep safe/Richard and Jen.
