Outnumbered...but in a good way!

The ladies at Amboise

For the last few days in the Craig household the males (me) have been slightly outnumbered as we have Pauline's sister Eileen and her friends Geraldine and Linda staying with us for a Loire Valley experience. We are trying to cram as much into to their time with us as possible,,,  
On their way to visit Chateau de Chenonceau

Chenonceau and Angles-sur-l'Anglin 'must see' places for these guests...

and we have to agree!

Great house, loved the balcony truly exceptional hosts in Jim & Pauline. Lots of interesting places to visit - must sees are Chenonceau and Angles-sur-l'Anglin. Make sure you visit the local pottery shop in the village and don't miss the local patisserie.

Leaving his Mark on the Loire Valley...



Enjoyed having son Mark over for a visit...took him to Chenonceau which he hadn't visited on previous visits.




Also stopped off at Amboise for photo opportunity with Leonardo.



Two deep thinkers together.



The view.


Slipped over into the Vienne to take in the night spectacular at Futuroscope.


Finished of his visit with lunch at the 'Auberge du Vieux Port'in Marie. 


True to his passion for improvisation Mark did a show immediately after arriving back in Edinburgh last night...as in straight from airport to venue!
