Loving travelling
through France. We stopped in at Chartres and admired Chartres Cathedral,
renowned for its stained-glass windows. On the way out of Chartres we were
intrigued as we passed a gypsy camp of Romanians.
We then moved on to the
charming town of Amboise where we walked through the narrow streets
appreciating the French homes and taking in the French way of life. We were
taken aback by the homes built into the rock cliff faces, referred to as
troglodytes. To our delight we stopped to watch a French family going about
everyday life, mother in the garden weeding to French tunes playing in the
background, father and son up on a ledge playing guitar/singing. Such a lovely sight to stumble across. Kassandra and I were dreaming of buying a holiday flat!

Look closely and you will see the father and son upstairs basking in the sun and bonding with music
