Day 4
So day 4 was a rest day. I rested.
I also went to see the Tank museum, which seemed a little out of place in this quaint little town, though Saumur is famed for its military horses so i suppose there is a connection.

It was a lovely night of wood fired barbequed food, local produce and AMAZING rosé haha. If any of you ever have the chance ...
Chateaux of the Loire I
... but mine would be Villandry and its incredible gardens. More on that later.
