France trip day 3
This day begins crossing one of the many bridges they have going over the Loire River in France. A visit then to the city of Amboise, and look they have a Bellevue in France as well. Next is an old Church in Aboise adorned with a garden in front. Along our way we happened to pass another small but still grand looking Castle Montpoupon from the side first and then a front shot. Beautiful. The Castle behind closed gates and a small open doorway is d'Azay le Rideau and they simply would not let you close unless you paid a good sum of money. Sorry, we weren't planning on spending so much on entry fees, and once you see the inside of one, you have seen them all right?? not, some are much better than others. On we go to the famed Usse Caslte from with Disney modeled the Small World Castle from. It is also famed for being the Castle the writer of Sleeping beauty thought of when describing her Castle. It was even equiped with figures throughout one of the towers representing characters in the story which also included a lovely garden. Next we visited the Langeais Castle, but again no admittance without ticket. Still the city was worth the visit. Last on our stop included a canoe ride along and under the Castle Chenonceau. Situated across the Loire River. It was worth the entrance fee.
