A last few shots from our visit to Blois...



And then we went to visit Chambord. Chambord is impressive, both in its design and its size. First, a shot of the whole place...

If you click on this one, it's at pretty good size. I don't post the photos to the blog full-res, but this one is a pretty good size.
Then we'll zoom in some to give you a sense of the scale of the place (see the people?)...

Here's an even better view of the people standing out there...

As you can see, it's a just a little place. Seriously, it was just a "hunting lodge" for the king, as he already had other royal residences. It's good to be the king!
