We're arriving at another chateau. The moat runs around a perimeter hundreds of yards out.

You have to walk quite a ways up this path...

... but now we arrive at what most of us find to be our favorite chateau: Chenonceau.

The Loire river runs around it.

Inside the place just glows with treasures.

Painted ceilings.

Richly framed warm paintings.

All the bedrooms outfitted to the max.

Zoom in.

Here's Louis the XIV. Nice frame Louis.

A quick check out the window to see if the are any invaders in the garden...

And we're headed back out after a couple hours touring.
