Chateau d'Ecouen


Today we went to the Chateau d'Ecouen. We ate lunch there which was really nice then took a tour around the castle. There were some pretty interesting wood carvings in different furnishings around the castle. There was also several huge tapestries that were very detailed. We walked around the surrounding area and it was really beautiful and set in the sprawling country side. I took some pictures of some interesting houses and I'm working on getting all my pictures on the internet somewhere. Flickr only would let me upload like 100 pics per month so I'm looking for any advice from anyone who has any alternatives.

When we came back a few of us went to the 19th arrondissement and went to the parc des Buttes Chaumont. After that we went to dinner at a japanese restaurant. Order japanese food in french, CHECK! Then we went to a bar to catch the last 15 mins of the USA/England game. Tomorrow we have the day off before classes start on monday.
