Chantilly


Busy, busy, busy, busy. I am not complaining because I like being busy, but I haven't had time to do anything I need to do-like apply for jobs-for a long time. However, I have gone to a few cool places recently. Located outside of Paris, The Chateau at Chantilly is beautiful and is one of the places a friend (Betsy) and I visited since my last post. Unfortunately, it is not the place where whipped cream was invented like I thought. However, it is a beautiful castle where a lot of famous people choose to get married.

As a matter of fact, we saw an awful lot of brides the day we went. Overall, it is a pretty cool place, although after seeing it once there is no need to see it again. After all, it is no Chateau of Versailles

And the lace! Where's the lace?! No whipped cream, very little lace...I mean, SERIOUSLY! What a disappointment.

Seriously, though, it is beautiful and the art collection is impressive. I'd like to go back and visit the stables.

Glad you're still among us!

Lovely pictures, but isn't Chantilly known for its lace? In my mom's day every bride wanted Chantilly lace on her dress/gown.

Nice to see a post from you Angela...have missed you!
