Castle towers

I think the castle at Chaumont looks like the typical fairy-tale castle. The corbelled and crenelated towers are topped by pointed roofs. All they need are big colorful banners flying from them. And I'll bet there used to be.

There should be a princess up there somewhere. Or maybe a prince?

Today is Thanksgiving Day in the United States. I wish all my American readers, wherever you are in the world, a very happy Thanksgiving. Ken and I are celebrating in our traditional non-traditional way, with a leg of lamb. Yum!

    1. michael, yes, they do, but they're usually only sold whole around Christmas time. Getting one at Thanksgiving is difficult as it upsets the natural rhythm of things (for the French). Hope your holiday weekend is going well!
