Monday was another excursion for our program and we visited Amboise and Chenonceau. Both are lovely in different ways--despite the rain that invaded our parade. Amboise is only partially visitable because most of it was destroyed--prior to our arrival by about 400 years. Its the resting place of Leonardo daVinci's remains as well.
Chenonceau is still lovely with a different history. Not one of physical brutality like Amboise, but of the people with whom its associated. Breath-taking gardens and beautifully furnished of period items.
