I am really enjoying reading your blog and only recently came across it and seeing as there are 600+ previous posts this should keep me entertained for a while!
What gorgeous photos. I really love this area of France, my parents used to live a little distance away in Indre and some of those photos remind me of Xmas in Indre, I actually like those bleak-ish winterscapes.
Also on a real Loire kick atm not just white, also Chinon, so this is a great reference for me. Appreiciate all the hard work!
