so i was at work the other day, and on my break i sat down to watch the tour de france...and in the 45 seconds i was sitting there watching, i stumbled across yet another place i want to see when i visit france next year(the plan is to go to paris for study abroad with byu in april...that is, assuming i can somehow afford this trip and they actually accept me into the study abroad program..right now i'm not worrying about assumptions..). This place is called the Château de la Brède in Gironde, France..this castle is the birthplace and home of the philosopher Montesquieu..brilliant man, that's for dang sure..this place is right outside Bordeaux, and about 300 miles from paris..which is perfect, because i will be in prime location to go there...and honestly, this is another one of those places that a person would have to be insane to not want to visit...i mean, seriously? look at this castle..
so i am planning on adding this to my already long list of sights to see in france...maybe i should just move there for a year or two...i'd get a lot more done that way
