I went to Loches and Blois this weekend. The group saw the chateau de Loches and it was very cool. We saw the keep and the dungeons that the prisoners had to stay in. It was cool, because it was not just a royal chateau that we are used to, but it was from the medival period so it was made for protection and war not so much pleasure and comfort. I like this chateau alot. It is different from the other so it wasn't like oh.. another chateau. We also walked around the city. If you are missing your favorite Chinese food, there is a great chinese resturant and the food was soo good.
