The mild countryside of Touraine

 The dinner on the terrace


The favorite time of the day: have dessert, ice cream, on the trampoline. For the photo, the girls are sitting quietly, but you should see them jump and bounce with their ice cream!


An other dessert on the Trampoline !


This tuesday, Laurent, Johann and Bohemond load the canoe on the car and take the direction of the Claise River to Bossay-sur-Claise.
We cross a beautiful National Forest


the trip went well except that Johann put his feet in the water and mud from the edge. Fortunately, after a good cleaning water jet, his "espadrilles" are like new again!


Of the banks, we see the old medieval Lion Castle . . .



. . . and the beautiful roof  with colorful glazed tiles.



Adventurers from the river put the canoe on the car and go home.
