Nonostante il meteo non sia stato dei migliori, si è trovato come trascorrere il tempo in modo piacevole e interessante. Nella casa sull'acqua la signora, che insieme al marito si occupa con passione di mantenere in ordine il mulino e soprattutto viva la memoria della donna che per una vita intera ci ha lavorato, ci ha spiegato l'uso e il funzionamento di ogni attrezzo e il lavoro ingegnoso di uomini - e donne - umili e laboriosi

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.
