Chateau-Gontier Hotels - Reviews and Rates

As we roll out of bed, it begins to sink in that today is our LAST DAY here in Chateau-Gontier. So sad. ... We definately have some very exciting things coming up on the last two legs of our journey ... but we will be ending our time in this small town in the French countryside. At 10:30am, Franck, Vincent, and Sandrine arrive to our house as pl...

We wake up feeling VERY refreshed ... a solid night's sleep for all! The kids wake up asking about the hotel breakfast. So cool that they like it here. Samuel says, "I wish we could live here all the time. Well, not all the time because I miss my friends. But maybe if they all could come here... then I would." Janice offers to take the kids on t...

Today will go down as our best lazy Chateau-Gontier day so far. Started simple enough. I woke up with the kids to let The Queen sleep in. Then, a trip to the boulangerrie for a bag full of necessities (financier, chocolate almond croissant, and chocolate bread for the kids). And then, we got dressed, packed up the red backpack full of toys from ...

Short and sweet. A lazy day today. Starts with a walk to la boulangerrie as usual. Today marks the end of Ella's discipline, and we celebrate with a morning of sugary treats! Slept in, ... played tennis (Asher wins again! Yay!) ..., movie night for the kids at home. Ella hurt her lip while running around the tennis courts. Saw an AMAZING rainbow...

The day starts with my awesome bride letting me sleep in until 10am! YEESSSSS!!!! And then I wake up and have the unpleasant task of measuring out the discipline we've decided on to Ella. She takes the news well. A little too well to be honest. Later in the day I hear her and Samuel talking about the things she doesn't get get for the next four ...

Yet another lazy day for us as we are resting up in anticipation of the pace of our France trip to increase rapidly in the coming days / weeks. So far, we've only done a little exploring nearby ... soon we will have a road trip to several French towns and cities including the city where Joan of Arc was killed, a two day trip to D-Day, and a thre...

Last night, we all hit the wall. Dead tired. Just absolutely EXHAUSTED. I think its a mixture of being tired physically, tired from the drain of living in another country, and tired from how long its been since we've been home. Janice is missing her routine and I think all of us are missing the comforts of home and our friends. As much fun as we...

Ah, ... a cool shower before bed... a nice breeze through the house. What a perfect night. We slept like rocks! First order of business is for me to make good on my promise to take the fam out for a big ol' French breakfast somewhere nice! It will be our first time using the car here. We pile in and head out in search of a place to grub. Last ni...
