... find the house she wants to live in

So my new abode is this tiny little place called Chennonceau, Kings and Queens might or might not have lived there in earlier days, and by might or might not I mean they did. It is a beautiful chateau built over a river, the castle is built on the bridge and the main gallery spans the river, which was the dividing line between occupied and unoccupied france in WWII and people used to sneak the resistance through the line in the gallery... cool? I would say so yes. We saw the gardens of the beautiful castle and then had a wine tasting at a wine sellers business along with goat cheese, which is actually good and does not taste like it sounds. Then next day we went to visit another castle, Chambord, which is amazingly beautiful and very intricate. Fun fact (although all these facts are fun) The town of Chambord is where the alcohol Chambord is made, did we have some? yes we did! Leonardo Da Vinci designed the main staircase which is a winding one but each floor has two entry/exit points so if I took one and you took the other we could climb all the way to the top and never cross each other's path. It was very interesting! We got to see the 'bed of france' where some Kings and princesses ad princes of France were made. Then we had a cookie tasting and I bought some gallettes, think cinnamon teddy grams but better. This week has been not too interesting, it has rained almost everyday which makes for a very depressing place and then I saw this woman get almost groped on the metro by a homeless guy.... yeah creepy. Oh and all the homeless people here have the cutest dogs and cats, seriously where do they find them because I want to ask one of them if I could borrow their animal for two months so I could have some one to come home (in my dorm) to! Seriously the cutest animals EVER! I booked all my trips for next session and my free long weekend between my two sessions this week so that was pretty exciting! Pictures of the castles are HERE!
