These Boots Are Made For Riding

Last weekend, we went on a voyage (coach trip) to Chateau Montpoupon, near the city of Tours, so north of here but south of Paris.

The chateau has been in the same family since 1857, although it originally dates to much earlier than that. However, as well as the house itself, there’s a very extensive stable area. The family has a tradition of being very involved in equine activities, especially hunting, as this room (and there are several more like it) illustrates.
