A little old and tired. My grandmother, my grandfather, has been baptized and camped in this church and is a member until my death. According to the Russian religion, the members of the congregation were named before Russia. So my grandmother and grandfather were named Valentina and Valeeri. Although they were Estonians. His grandfather fought on the German side in 1940 against the Russian forces, was lightly wounded and did not go to war again. They gave birth to 5 children, 4 boys and a girl. In 1991, his grandfather left after seeing the coming of Estonia and the blue-black-white dream he had dreamed of.

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
