This is Azay-le-Rideau. Of all the chateaux we visited in my short, if it's Tuesday, it must be Chartres, tour of France, this one was my favorite.

Also, rideau translates to curtain, and rideaux to drapes, so this only adds to my mysterious alter ego disguise.

Don't feel bad. Do a search on FB for my name sometime. Oy freaking vey there's a lot of us out there. And apparently many of them are scantily-clad 20-somethings if some early friend requests are any indication.

Last weekend I had a guy message me to ask if I was the person filling in on backup vocals for his blues band (we have a friend in common, so he thought the woman was me.) Hah.

Hey, one Gordon Edgar is involved in Scottish Parliment and another wrote a book about trains in China. I think it makes me look good!
