Département de l'Indre

The day we left Paris we woke up early and went to drive to Allouis, but on our way we decided to drive to Monet’s garden. It was good because I had seen some of his pictures in the Musee D’Orsay which he painted in this garden. It was one of the biggest gardens I have ever seen(apart from the city ones) but I reckon it was better than the Melbourne botanical gardens. We also got a tour of his house which was very colourful. My advice is that if you want to go to his garden you should go early in the morning,because there are less people there and less tour groups. Our next stop was a big town on an island called Mont Saint-Michel and it was the busiest tourist destination I had ever seen! There were people everywhere. You had to do a pretty big walk to get there and once we did all the shops looked all medieval and old. We didn’t get to see much of it due to all the people but later we looked up how many people were there per day, and it said 15,000 people. Once we had done that we drove into the country of France and finally got to Allouis where we were staying in a three story tower.

On our 2nd day at the tower we had quite the down day which we wanted to do for the rest of our 3 days here. We hung around the pool(which had a few floating donuts which was fun for me) and just sat and read on the deck chairs outside our tower.And on the 4th we repeated everything we just did on the 3rd and 2nd. Jemilla and I learnt how to play 500 so I think we might be playing a bit of that on the rest of our trip. Now off to our castle.Les mer
