Random snippets of stuff from the web and my life
Chateau le Clos Lucé was the home of one Leonardo da Vinci for the last 3 years of his life. Not only is it a beautiful renaissance building, but it is also a fascinating view into the life of one of the great men of history. I felt humbled to be in da Vinci's house and we were all very much in awe of what he had achieved there. The gardens are such a peaceful place to walk and contemplate some of his most famous designs as many have been turned into interactive models throughout the grounds. A very special place and well worth a visit if you're in the area.
Chateau de Chambord was just one of the dozens of stunning chateaux in the Val de Loire. A beautiful place, Chambord was originally a hunting lodge for french king Francois I. The grounds of Chambord are now the largest enclosed natural parc in europe.
Our home for the last 4 days was the campsite Parc du Val de Loire - a lovely site with great facilities and very friendly staff. We would heartily recommend it.
Someone should DEFINITELY make a Lego Star Wars feature film :)
