little bridge at Chenonceau


This bridge connects the right bank of the river Cher to the château that straddles the river.  I was lucky to visit the other day when the sky was a brilliant blue with little puffy clouds.  You might expect to be seeing more.

    1. Playing tour guide as usual, but I don't get tired of visiting this gem. I'm guessing you've taken a few guests there yourself.
