So we spent a weekend in the Loire Valley, just south of Paris. We toured several chateaux and the city of Amboise. First up is Amboise, which housed an amazing medieval town, Leonardo Di Vinci's house and a chateau.

And the playground on the grounds:The last Chateau. I only remember it as Sleeping Beauties Castle.
Currently typing this blog from Paris, as evident by the scarf in my picture. Occasionally attending class and exploring the city. If all goes according to schedule, I will have posts every week about a new destination outside of Paris.
