The Château de Rambouillet is a castle in the town of Rambouillet which is located in northern France, 31 miles southwest of Paris. It is the summer residence of the Presidents of the French Republic. It has been said that Queen Marie-Antoinette, who accompanied her husband, King Louis XVI on a visit in November 1783: "Comment pourrais-je vivre dans cette gothique crapaudière!" (How could I live in such a gothic toadhouse!) Toadhouse or not, I think Chateau de Rambouillet is absolutely gorgeous!

This Castle is so grand, Kerri. You know, some of the old gothic structures are the most gorgeous in the world. I love Castles - wouldn't it nice to live in one?
I hope you are enjoying the new year.

teeeeheeeee....La reine did have her opinions! I think I could live in such a "toadhouse" - who knows, maybe one could see Toad of Toadhall taking up residence!
KERRI! Is this not a great château?
I hope your holidays were divine; mine were! We flew to Los Angeles to be with family and we had a blast. We even drove to my favorite beach, Santa Monica.
Thanks for coming by my friend! Anita
