Loire Valley

I apologize for missing updates.  I have been under the weather with a touch of the flu.  We will get caught up with all of the exciting pictures and information on Paris, including the Eiffel Tower, Versaille, Museums, Notre Dame, etc.

We arrived in Loire yesterday.  Maddux joined me in the "luggage express" van ride and the others took the TGV train into Laval.  We picked them up around 6 p.m. and got back to the chateau for an impressive self prepared dinner.  We had barbeque pork chops (barbeque courtesy of Steve Mendelson from Tucson - Ron brought the sauce over and it was a HIT!!), an amazing local lettuce salad and fried new potatoes.

We are settling into this amazing place and will update on our visits to the historical WW II sites, including Normandy.

Tonight we are having a local chef in to prepare dinner for all 12 of us (two more guests joined yesterday evening).  We have a full house.
