Amboise

This last weekend I went with 3 other guys to Amboise which is on the Loire River in the heart of chateau country. Our group included Damon Ferechetian, Chris Allebach and Adam Aljets. We left Saturday early morning and returned late Sunday night. In the morning we explored a little bit of Amboise and saw da Vinci's house Clos Luce and the surrounding area which has been turned into somewhat of a museum of his works. We checked into our hotel, Cafe des Arts after noon and had lunch. Then we rented bikes to take to Chenonceau. We biked back to Amboise at 7 then ate dinner and sat by the Loire until dark. The next day we went to Chateau d'Amboise and just relaxed and didn't do much until our train left at 8. We had a connecting train in Tour which didn't leave for 1:20 after we arrived so we went out and walked Tour, although everything was closed and there was nothing to see. Great trip overall.
