Driving through the amazing french countryside we came upon field after field of these amazing yellow flowers. Being the crazy duo we are, Trevor and I immediately hopped out of the car to climb through the dirt to get to one of the beautiful field. My white jeans were covered in dirt, but it was worth it, we took some amazing photos!

Welcome to chateau #2, Chatillon-En-Bazois. A beautiful, majestic chateau that sits a top a quaint town. We arrived early in the evening to find our wonderful hosts and residence of this beautiful chateau had planned a dinner party in our honor. They had invited all of their closest friends to come and meet “The Americans”. As we speak very little French, and they speak little English they were kind enough to hire us a translator. We experienced one of the most magnificent dinners we had while on our trip. Course after course of light, yet insanely flavorful food, we were left speechless. We met incredibly interesting, fabulous new friends, including one who owns a cookie factory just down the road from the Chateau. He insisted the next day that we come visit him and see his work. Of course he completely stuffed our carry ons with cookies 🙂

The Chateau was absolutely beautiful. Filled with 17th century art, hidden bookcase doors, and some of the most beautiful interiors we saw in any chateau on our trip. Alas this is not the place we are choosing! So stay tuned for more fabulous French chateaus!
