Cheverny and Chaumont
27. juli 2016, Frankrike ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C
We saw two very different chateaux today. Cheverny reminded us of Downton Abbey complete with a large group of hound dogs ready to go hunting. Chaumont was like a Disneyland castle with a drawbridge and winding staircases. Both had gorgeous gardens.Les mer

This morning we were in heavy mist just long enough to get all covered up in our rain gear (thanks Dad!) and then voila, it dried up. We decided against another castle today and instead had a leisurely lunch in yet another cute village. The last picture is the front door of the airbnb we stayed in last night. It was a little house in the back with kittens ama chickens and a very nice family.Les mer

Dag 11
C'est finis!
28. juli 2016, Frankrike ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C
We finished our trip with a shorter day ride along the Loire. We were on the designated bike trail all day, so it was fun to say "Bonjour" to other cyclists. Our quads got a workout because there were more hills today. We both decided what was especially fun about this trip was that there were so many different surprises around every turn - a beautiful field, an old fortress, a country farmhouse, a forest, a little village. We turned the bikes in and had an easy flight back to London where Ross and Kate were waiting for us. We finished roughly 100 miles and we were pleased with ourselves for accomplishing our adventure!Les mer

British Museum

We slept in and had English tea. We said good bye to Ross, who's flying to California for work and will be seeing Elly and James. We walked a half mile to the British Museum. Kate joined us after work. Most of London's museums are free and unlike the Louvre or the Met, they have lots of museums that each feature different types of collections. It's nice because no one place is overwhelming.Les mer

Afternoon Stroll
30. juli 2016, England ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C
This afternoon we strolled through the Victoria and Albert Museum. I loved the Chihuly blown glass. We tried on some medieval wear and saw one of Leonardo da Vinci's notebooks. We then stopped in at Harrods Department Store. We finished our day with an evensong service at St. Paul's Cathedral. Along the way we ran into Ed's old school and the building where they filmed the Gringotts scenes in Harry Potter.Les mer

British Library
31. juli 2016, England ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C
We started our day at a yoga class in a Lululemon store and it felt great to get stretched out. Then we tried to wrap our heads around all the treasures at the British Library - the Magna Carta, a Gospel of John from 250AD, Galileo's book about the moon, Mozart's composition book, the earliest copy of Beowulf, and lots more. For dinner, Kate, Trish and I had our first British meal and we enjoyed it all - bangers, mash, bubbles and squeak, chicken pie, sticky toffee pudding, but the best of all was the ginger pudding!Les mer
