... stopping for glimpses of even more chateau's at Azay-le-Rideau and Chinon where we also went for a wander through the old town as sun was setting. By the time we got back to Saumur, the city lights had come on so we thought it might be a good opportunity to get a photo of the Chateau lit up at night.

We drove as close as we could but couldn't quite get the shot we were after. I spied a gap in a temporary fence that looked like it was there ...
