Our Last Day in France

Yesterday was our last full day in France with our cousins. It's been a good time, and they've been very kind. Ben and I are very grateful, and enjoyed this stay to the fullest. Good times that I shan't soon forget.
Yesterday afternoon we spent with Aunt Jenn at the second most visited chateau in France...Chateau de Chenonceau!
This is the priest's house, absolutely covered in wisteria.
The chapel.
The dancing hall.
We found Bambi, hiding in the kitchen.
We need this stove...
King Françoise's lizard on the left, and Queen Claudet's ermine on the right.
Can you see anything interesting on the back of this donkey? According to Roman Catholic legend, ever since Jesus rode on a donkey, donkeys have grown the shape of a cross on their back.

Next time, my post shall be of London!
