I Go To Loire In France




While driving countryside in France, we saw lots of sunflower fields. Those flowers reminded me of artists who had lived in France, such as Vincent van Gogh.



We stayed in a hotel called "Domaine Des Roses" where beautiful roses were blooming.

We had an engine trouble to our rental car. So, I called a tow truck.
This is a picture which I took while waiting for the tow truck.





We visited The Château d'Angers, but could not take even a single picture beause we lost ample time for repairing the rental car.
So, I got following pictures from "Google Street View."
The Château d'Angers is a castle in the city of Angers in the Loire Valley in France.
