We’re in France - why wait til Wednesday?

Actually, Wednesday is the day we do some serious tastings here in the Loire, so expect a longer post then. In the meantime just a quick little video we shot tonight mixing some Nicolas Feuillatte Champagne and Chambord Liqueur Royale.

We visited the Chambord Chateau today, and on the way back to Le Moulin Du Port (our B&B), we passsed the Chambord property - pretty cool.

Once again, our pairings are TOTALLY off, but what are you going to do when you’re in France with a 10mo old and curfew is each night at 7p, and the restos don’t open til 8? Well, you do a quick video with some champagne and Chambord for y’all and then settle in for a few episodes of Dexter on the MacBook.

BTW, tomorrow, we walk the 4k along the banks of the Cher to Chenonceau, a chateau with no moat, because it was built on the river.

  1. While I love the Kir Royale video (had it… yummy)! I more interested on the specs of the photo on top (F-stop, lens etc. Do tell). Can I assume Jen took it? WICKED photo! I love everything about it. The dramatic clouds, the castle that looks like something out of a painting, the perfect compostition, and of course, the oh-so-special father/son moment. Way to go Jen!! Kudos to you.

  2. If you know all that F-Stoppy goodness, we need to chat. I just set my camera to intelligent Auto and let it go.

    i have a flickr feed with a bunch of pics from the trip up there.. check out http://www.flickr.com/photos/buzzbishop/
