Salut. Oh, my gracious. The tour was so lovely. Thank you for showing the lovely Castle, I mean Chateau. Congrats to whoever wins the postcards. This is ce magnifique. Passe une bonne journee Maire
Thank you for giving me a tour of your castle, Princess Marie 👸. In the UK 🇬🇧 afternoon tea, usually comprising of small sandwiches and/or something sweet was a result of the industrial revolution as the evening meal became later. A light snack to tide over till the evening meal. You do an excellent job sharing your experience with us and it saddens me that the number of views doesn't reflect the effort and time you put in to making our experience enjoyable. Thanks, Marie 🌹 ☺
This seems to be a very charming place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future when all this is over. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much!
Marvelous job Princess Marie!!! 👍👍👍 (Shout out to Corker_X for the gas funds to help make it happen! 🙌) "The castle is 34 Marie's high" 🤣🤣🤣 Terrific music selection! The pea-pod of life was rather odd. Pretty amazing place, thanks so much for sharing your adventure! Love your postcard idea!!! Sadly I can't think of anything funny but cheers to the lucky winners! I enjoyed your video! :0) 🐺
I sometimes forget that France drives on the right side of the road and steer from the left side of vehicles like we do in the U.S. That should make getting around easier in America whenever you finally make it over here! ~Be Blessed
One of my fave chateaux, love the Loire region esp around Tours. Scary, my first visit was 35 years ago. Plus points for the tartan - an emblem of the Scottish and French alliances that goes back many hundreds of years.
Beautiful and pretty amazing place! It's amazing it's in such good condition as well. I hope France continues to cherish it, along with all the other castles. I'm pretty sure there will never be a new one built. We have castles in USA also, like the Biltmore in Asheville, North Carolina, but nothing as old as anything in France or Europe (of course). Most of the castles built here have not lasted and are gone or just remnants with only a few that are maintained. Personally I have only visited the Hearst Castle in California. because I live a little less then 250 miles from it and it's amazing as well, but no where near as magnifique. It is less then 150 years old and it will be very lucky if it survives the 500 plus years the Chambord has lasted or any of the castles in Europe. Thank you for taking us with you! It's just another place we will most likely never have the chance to see or touch first hand.
That castle was huge. Honey, where did you put the children? You could get lost for a day in that castle. Thanks Marie, that was beautiful and enormous. Did you have generations of Kings and Queens?
When I flew with the US Army in Europe we would fly over so many wonderful castles and never got to visit them. There were some really cool ones in Bosnia that were carved out of the mountains. Maybe someday I can go back and tour them.
Absoulutely Beautiful, keep them French travel videos coming. OK, here is a joke, see if you get it? Two Cats are having a swimming race. One is called "One two three", the other "Un deux trois" Which cat won? "One two three" because "Un deux trois cat sank". (Un deux trois quatre cinq.), (Un deux trois cat sank).
Nice! I visited Chambord when I was in high school. Chambord is one reason there was a French revolution. The royal court lived such an ostentatious life far removed from the citizenry. The kings and 5000 of the court would travel to Chambord from Paris/Versailes to Chambord by carriage and horse. They would stop overnight at a local nobleman’s castle and expected to be fed and housed. While it was great honor to be chosen, local nobleman could not afford to take care of so many and could be bankrupted by the ordeal even if for one night. Chambord was a hunting estate. The lands surrounding the castle were off-limits to any one not in the king’s court. Anyone not permitted caught on the grounds would be killed. There is a story that François I exhausted the finances of France building Chanbord while his brother was being held for ransom by the king of Spain. While magnificient, it has meant that whoever owns it (now the government of France) has had to spend huge sums of money to maintain it.
I guess it's better that I didn't see this video until now, because for the first time in my life, I can't think of anything funny to say. It did have some creepy stuff....kind of had a "Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" vibe. Great video! Very well done. I'm impressed (and I'm rarely impressed).
Beau château royal. Mon mémoire est bon depuis beaucoup d’années qu’il y a plus de 400 chambres dans ce château. Great job Marie and Rémy! I have 2 entries for the joke competition: 1) I wonder if the kingy wingy let the neighborhood kids play ball on his front lawn, and 2), I wonder if His Majesty had a sign out front that read, “My other house is shack”. Je n’ai jamais dit que je suis comédien! 🤓👍☀️🌎🌸😉
I SO love these videos! I'm glad that you can make these, that you enjoy them, that we can learn from them, and that you can earn $ from them too! Rien que du positif! ~Be Blessed
OMG Marie! Chambord! I visited that chateau many years ago, so many fond memories of the trip there! Hang on - its near Tours? Umm. Okay, maybe we visited when we stayed at Sainte Maure de Touraine? But checking google maps, where's the large lake we had our lunch at? (baguettes and craquelin de St Malo with rillettes. Or possibly terrine.) Just a sec. Craquelin de St Malo? That's Bretagne.. [frantic memory search and googling] OHHH. Chateau COMBOURG! Only three hundred km away...
Fascinating video, thank you for sharing it with us. The double spiral staircase may have been designed by Leonardo da Vinci. I hope you can show us more French castles and culture in the near future without a mask on.
They say that a beautiful lady named Marie haunts the castle still.she went on a tour and never came out.a most charming lady but sadly with no head for directions. Thanks for posting this dear it was beautiful.one of the things i have missed the most is touring places like this👍👍👍👍👍❤❤❤❤
"Honey, let's decorate our castle with a haunted forest/dead fetus in a jar motif. That will never go out of style." Thanks for the video tour, Marie. This castle is amazing! The grounds and building are incredible! I was surprised by just how much creepy decor there was inside though. Much love to you as always! ❤
This is great. I LOVE Renaissance architecture, it really has soul unlike the ugly modernist/postmodern stuff being built today. I’d love if you made videos some day showing more French castles and nice French churches!
Thank you for showing us this castle miss Marie! That place is so big that I would have to leave bread crumbs to find my way put. Well if the birds didn't eat them haha!
Somehow, I feel like I would get lost even worse than you. Within a couple of hours, if I was with somebody, I'd stop thinking about finding my way out, and I'd start looking at my travel partner, cartoonishly eyeing them as if they would be my next meal lol
Excellent video. I absolutely love the French architecture of the Chateau period, it is so fantastic. So many parts of France are so pretty 🤩, no wonder so many tourists love going to France and not just Paris. Many early Americans who made huge fortunes in railroads, mining, steel and fur trading built massive homes in this style. There is still a wonderful one In Asheville, North Carolina built by the Vanderbilt family ( New York Central railroad all the way to Gloria Vanderbilt jeans for women! ) call The Biltmore. Genius design.
This video was terrific. It was funny ,educational, and entertaining all at the same time!! You’ve done it again!!! Since it’s 1:00 am here in South Florida, my brain is asleep,couldn’t think of any jokes. I guess I had no “moat- ive”. LOL, I know it’s bad , 2/3 of a pun: pu!!! . Keep up your great work!! 😎👍👍👍👍👍👍
C'est Magnifique. Marie went hunting at Chambord for Marie. The stuff animal le chipmunk? Beautiful. Does a National Trust maintain and administrate the property? Is it like a National Park of Trust? Wonderful video, Marie.
OMG it's beautiful I love it. I get to see something I may never get the opportunity to see in person and it's from your point of view. Thanks for the opportunity to see this. ❤️ From Pennsylvania
What a beautiful castle. I've been to Versaille, but not to Chambourg--next time I'm in France, peut-etre. Love the formal gardens with fancy designs in the planting--sort of like fleur-di-lis but fancier That art exhbit looks quite modern-- I bet they have an art gallery or museum in a few rooms to draw folks to come back time after time And thanks for letting us hear the European Goldfinch-- they sound somewhat like the American Goldfinch. I have never seen a European Goldfinch, but there was one just maybe 10 miles away in Dearborn a few years ago in a big sunflower field around the Ford World Headquarters. I looked for it several times but never found it amdst the hundreds of American Goldfinches, sparrows, Pine Siskins etc. Amazing that it is called a European Goldfinch when it doesn't seem to have much if any gold on it. Just looking it up in my Peterson['s Field Guide to the Birds of Britian and Europe I bought before my last trip to Europe in 1989. I see they do have gold on the wings in a nice pattern. Hopeully I'll see them when I next come to France! That crepe looked declicious!! That's how I remember them being folded when I bought them on the street in Paris--a triangle. I have to admit I usually eat mine witha fork because I roll up either spinach in a cheese sauce or ice cream with chocolate sauce or maple syrup Looks like you were the princess always climbing to loftier heights, but also descending to I don't know what. Thanks for a very well done, informative and fun video!!
Hi Marie, thanks for the tour; when I went I arrived too late to go inside, so I just walked the grounds, beautiful vistas. I had to take a taxi from Blois you lucky girl getting to drive your own car ;). Are the shows closed because of Covid? They had a show when I was there with the horses and falcons. I'm guessing the art (if you call it that) was a modern art display using the castle as a venue, and not part of the original castle decor. Looks like you had a great day.
Lol love the Utah mask 😷 Wow this place is amazing ... The DaVinci double helix stairway has always been something I've wanted to see it's truly a work of art.
What a beautiful and fascinating place. Stunning architecture! Merci, for taking us with you, I felt like I was there. (With apologies for my bad French) “Tu achétes beaucoup de petit animaux, Marie!” “Je sais, la voiture est plein, mais tu peux prendre le train, non?”
Lovely video Marie and Remy. This is why I love this channel. The France we don't often get to see especially narrated by someone that we know. This castle is stunning.😍😍
Enjoyed your video, I noticed the music that was playing at 10:45 was La Vieen Rose performed by Louis Armstrong, a famous jazz singer and trumpeter from New Orleans, you were wearing a New Orleans cap, you went into Cafe’ Orleans and when you visit New Orleans you will fly into Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport. You should listen to Louis Armstrong’s most famous song What a Wonderful World, anyway the castle was nice too..ha ha.
Hey there miss marie🤗 Awesome video, thanks for taking us on a wonderful tour of your future home Mr. Frenchtastic is buying you😂😂 take care angel eyes..🌻🌻🌻
That's amazing sweetheart... thanks for that special video.. not long ago I was talking about a castle .. also not to mention the song of candy .. the cartoons
Je lisais juste un peu sur Chambord pour me rafraîchir la mémoire ! C'est complètement fou de penser que ce château a d'abord servi non pas de résidence permanente, mais de nouveau château de chasse annexé au château de Blois et que le roi n'y vivrait que 42 jours en 32 ans de règne!! 😳😂 J'aime beaucoup le bateau dans le canal ! Ça s'appelle une péniche en français ? As-tu vu des cerfs vivants ? (il y avait plein de morts dans le château !) Les chambres avec l'art moderne et les trucs bizarres n'étaient pas là en 1974 ! Je suis d'accord avec Rémy - ce serait un endroit génial pour une chasse aux œufs de Pâques ! Mais il faudrait utiliser des œufs de Fabergé ! ------------------- I was just reading a little about Chambord to refresh my memory! It's completely crazy to think that this castle was first used not as a permanent residence, but as a new hunting lodge annexed to the castle of Blois and that the king would only live there 42 days in 32 years of reign !! I really like the boat in the canal! Is it called a barge in French? Did you see any live deer! (there were plenty of dead ones in the castle!) The rooms with the modern art and weird stuff weren't there in 1974! I agree with Rémy - this would be a great place for an Easter egg hunt! But you would have to use Fabergé eggs!
430 rooms? Is that right? It must have taken a lot of forest wood to keep it heated in the winter. It must have been hard for them to find artwork for each of those rooms. Certainly a big and beautiful castle, thank you for taking us along with you. By the way, the rose smelled fantastic!
Though I never had the privilege of going into a French castle I can understand. I got turned around in a lot of castles in Germany back in the day. Ludwigsburg Palace especially, supposedly Napoleon's eastern headquarters after he took Germany, and Josephine had her own room with a solid gold bed frame (I think I am remembering correctly).
Miss Marie, Thank you for such a wonderful video.. I love it. You need to start a gas fund so you can show us more of your beautiful country........:-)
We talked about funding last weekend during Marie's live stream. "Go Fund Me" and "Buy Me a Coffee" came up. Given her desire to do travel videos, I'd like to see her set up the BMAC service as "Buy Me Some Gas!" It would be a simple easy way for anyone to help underwrite the cost of her travels. In order to fill up her gas tank for this trip, I had to guess at the size of her car's tank, look up the cost of premium grade gas in France, use a mapper to get the distance from Tours to the Chateau, do the math, convert to/from metric to US measures, and then send the money by PayPal. It worked, but would be so much easier if she set up something like the BMAC service. If it was quick & easy to contribute a little or a lot, many more subscribers would help defray her costs. This was a day trip, but viewer funding will be more important for her trip to Normandy and other distant points of interest. There will be overnight lodging, meals, and other travel expenses.
@@billunwin7624 You're right, Bill. Marie should take a lesson from buskers. They perform in public places where all can enjoy their art -- but always have an open instrument case, basket, or other container to accept donations. It's "tip-jar funding." Patreon is "subscription funding", and that's not for everyone. "Buy Me a Coffee" and similar "tip jar" systems are a perfect emulation of the busker's instrument case -- toss in a few $$ if you like what you see and hear. Today, the cost of gas in France is roughly $1.85 per liter ($7.00 per U.S. gallon.) That liter of fuel should take Marie's car roughly 10.5 miles. The round trip to Chambord was 100 miles (10 donations of one liter.) Her upcoming trip to Normandy will be 400 miles (38 donations of one liter.)
Great video Marie. That's a beautiful place but if you are the Princess of the Castle shouldn't you at least have a map or an aide so you don't get lost so much, just saying 😉 I really enjoyed this one and hope to see more like this. Take care and be safe!
J’ai beaucoup aimé entendre la chanson des oiseaux. “The Eastern Goldfinch” est l’oiseau officiel de l’état de New Jersey aux États-Unis. “The Bald Eagle” is a national symbol of the USA. 🦅🚴♂️👍🌸☀️🌎⚽️⚾️😉
Lol. im going to start measuring everything in Marie's🥰🤣 I live near the largest in Castle/Home in America 🇺🇸. Called Biltmore Estate in Ashville NC USA
Une blonde, une rousse et une brune fuient les gardes du Château de Chambord vers 1650. Ils trébuchent dans une salle de stockage de l'autre côté du donjon qui est empilée de boîtes, de tonneaux et de sacs. La rousse vide précipitamment un tas de pommes de terre d'une des toiles de jute et grimpe à l'intérieur. La brune et la blonde emboîtent rapidement le pas. Les gardes sont sur le point de se précipiter devant la salle de stockage mais entendent quelque chose à l'intérieur et vont enquêter : personne ne semble être là. L'un des gardes donne un coup de pied interrogateur dans un sac étrangement placé - celui dans lequel se cache la brune - et est récompensé par un "miaou!" "Juste un sale chat", explique le garde, alors qu'il donne un coup de pied à un autre. Cette fois, c'est la rousse : "Ouah, ouah" elle pousse un cri strident ! - Juste un putain de chien, alors, dit le garde. Il voit un troisième sac, et cette fois c'est celui de la blonde. Pensant avoir compris le truc, elle s'exclame : "Pomme de terre ! Pomme de terre ! Pomme de terre !" Je n'ai le droit d'utiliser cette blague que parce que Marie est brune! 🤣🥰 Merci de ne pas m'inscrire au concours car j'ai eu la chance de visiter Chambord en personne ! ----------------------- A blonde, a redhead and a brunette flee from the guards of the Château de Chambord around 1650. They stumble into a storage room on the other side of the dungeon which is stacked with boxes, barrels, and sacks. The redhead hastily empties a pile of potatoes from one of the burlap bags and climbs inside. The brunette and the blonde quickly follow suit. The guards are about to rush past the storage room but hear something inside and go to investigate: no one seems to be there. One of the guards questioningly kicks a weirdly placed bag - the one the brunette is hiding in - and is rewarded with a "meow!" "Just a dirty cat," the guard explains, as he kicks another. This time, it's the redhead: "Woof Woof" she gives a shrill cry! "Just a lousy dog” said the guard. He sees a third bag, and this time it's the blond’s. Thinking she understood what to do, she exclaims: "Potato! Potato! Potato!" I can only use this joke because Marie is a brunette! 🤣🥰 Please do not enter me in the contest because I’ve been fortunate enough to visit Chambord in person!

Magical big castle, great tour, and a wee bit of Scotland in the gift shop - a shelf full of Unicorns 🦄🦄🦄 🤣🤣
the architecture is so ornate , spectacular
Salut. Oh, my gracious. The tour was so lovely. Thank you for showing the lovely Castle, I mean Chateau. Congrats to whoever wins the postcards. This is ce magnifique. Passe une bonne journee Maire

I'm obsessed with historical places like this, it takes you back in time
What an amazing castle! 🏰 It so huge it's crazy to think of people actually living there.
Very beautiful architecture .Thanks for sharing.
This seems to be a very charming place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future when all this is over. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much!
it is one of the most beautiful chateaux of france.
I would love to attempt to see all 430 rooms, but I'm afraid that after seeing less than half of them that I'd find myself Chambord.
I loved Chenonceau and Amboise when I visited in 1999.
Thank you Marie for this fantastic tour of France. ❤️from Oklahoma.
Hello from Edmond, OK!

If only I had a glass of Chambord to enjoy while watching this tour of Chambord... It would be exquisite.
Hi ! Its me again 🙂thanks❤️
Great tour! I would have loved for my visit to Versailles to have been just that few people!
Dear Princess Marie: Thank you for the tour of Castle Marie! The European Goldfinches are stunning! Cheers from California.
Beautiful and pretty amazing place!
It's amazing it's in such good condition as well. I hope France continues to cherish it, along with all the other castles. I'm pretty sure there will never be a new one built.

Two Cats are having a swimming race.

"One two three" because "Un deux trois cat sank".

What a gorgeous location, Marie! Thank you for taking us on the tour. A place I will need to visit when we're all allowed regular travel once more.
The roses close to the end look a lot like what we call "The Peace Rose".

Great job with your video and thanks for the tour around that Amazing Castle .
Very nice video Marie - the 'art works' were a bit weird but an amazing place to visit.
OMG it's beautiful I love it. I get to see something I may never get the opportunity to see in person and it's from your point of view. Thanks for the opportunity to see this. ❤️ From Pennsylvania
Great Video! Would be great to see more French historical sites outside of the typical ones shown in Paris and the surrounding area.

Don't know why part of this is crossed out I didn't do that, at least not intentionally.
The castle was bit overdone with antlers and deer head for sure1 Francois seems to have been more than a bit obsessive on that.
Hi Marie, thanks for the tour; when I went I arrived too late to go inside, so I just walked the grounds, beautiful vistas. I had to take a taxi from Blois you lucky girl getting to drive your own car ;). Are the shows closed because of Covid? They had a show when I was there with the horses and falcons. I'm guessing the art (if you call it that) was a modern art display using the castle as a venue, and not part of the original castle decor. Looks like you had a great day.
no, the shows are open! :) but we didn't get to see it
Enfant, j’ai visité Chambord et beaucoup d’autres châteaux dans la vallée de la Loire.
Moi aussi, quand j’ai passé un semestre d’études à Angers en 1978. Je vive maintenant en l’état de New Jersey, aux États-Unis.
Merci beaucoup de me donner des nouvelles de mon château de Chambord alors que je suis expatrié ! Superbe vidéo, bonne continuation :)
Lol love the Utah mask 😷
Wow this place is amazing ... The DaVinci double helix stairway has always been something I've wanted to see it's truly a work of art.
What a beautiful and fascinating place. Stunning architecture! Merci, for taking us with you, I felt like I was there.
(With apologies for my bad French) “Tu achétes beaucoup de petit animaux, Marie!” “Je sais, la voiture est plein, mais tu peux prendre le train, non?”

Lovely video Marie and Remy. This is why I love this channel. The France we don't often get to see especially narrated by someone that we know. This castle is stunning.😍😍
Hi new friend ! How are you ? Thanks for sharing 👍here supporting ❤️❤️❤️
Enjoyed your video, I noticed the music that was playing at 10:45 was La Vieen Rose performed by Louis Armstrong, a famous jazz singer and trumpeter from New Orleans, you were wearing a New Orleans cap, you went into Cafe’ Orleans and when you visit New Orleans you will fly into Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport. You should listen to Louis Armstrong’s most famous song What a Wonderful World, anyway the castle was nice too..ha ha.
Hey there miss marie🤗
Awesome video, thanks for taking us on a wonderful tour of your future home Mr. Frenchtastic is buying you😂😂 take care angel eyes..🌻🌻🌻
The castle is VERY large but it is still not big enough to display all of the flags you have been given! 🤣
😂😂
Alas, I did not make it to this beautiful place during my time in France. Thanks for the tour.
That's amazing sweetheart... thanks for that special video.. not long ago I was talking about a castle .. also not to mention the song of candy .. the cartoons
Je lisais juste un peu sur Chambord pour me rafraîchir la mémoire ! C'est complètement fou de penser que ce château a d'abord servi non pas de résidence permanente, mais de nouveau château de chasse annexé au château de Blois et que le roi n'y vivrait que 42 jours en 32 ans de règne!! 😳😂
J'aime beaucoup le bateau dans le canal ! Ça s'appelle une péniche en français ? As-tu vu des cerfs vivants ? (il y avait plein de morts dans le château !)
Les chambres avec l'art moderne et les trucs bizarres n'étaient pas là en 1974 !
Je suis d'accord avec Rémy - ce serait un endroit génial pour une chasse aux œufs de Pâques ! Mais il faudrait utiliser des œufs de Fabergé !
-------------------
I was just reading a little about Chambord to refresh my memory! It's completely crazy to think that this castle was first used not as a permanent residence, but as a new hunting lodge annexed to the castle of Blois and that the king would only live there 42 days in 32 years of reign !!
I really like the boat in the canal! Is it called a barge in French? Did you see any live deer! (there were plenty of dead ones in the castle!) The rooms with the modern art and weird stuff weren't there in 1974! I agree with Rémy - this would be a great place for an Easter egg hunt! But you would have to use Fabergé eggs!
Non pas fe cerf en vue !
Oui, c'est une péniche :)
430 rooms? Is that right? It must have taken a lot of forest wood to keep it heated in the winter. It must have been hard for them to find artwork for each of those rooms. Certainly a big and beautiful castle, thank you for taking us along with you. By the way, the rose smelled fantastic!
The walls were covered in tapestries to insulate the castle and their beds were surrounded with heavy material to keep them warm at night.🌬
I don't know why I found it so funny but I almost spit out the water I was drinking at the "34 Maries"
Though I never had the privilege of going into a French castle I can understand. I got turned around in a lot of castles in Germany back in the day. Ludwigsburg Palace especially, supposedly Napoleon's eastern headquarters after he took Germany, and Josephine had her own room with a solid gold bed frame (I think I am remembering correctly).
Marie left Tours... to take a tour.
The castle had many points...
so Marie was not disap-point-ed.
Miss Marie, Thank you for such a wonderful video.. I love it. You need to start a gas fund so you can show us more of your beautiful country........:-)
We talked about funding last weekend during Marie's live stream. "Go Fund Me" and "Buy Me a Coffee" came up. Given her desire to do travel videos, I'd like to see her set up the BMAC service as "Buy Me Some Gas!" It would be a simple easy way for anyone to help underwrite the cost of her travels. In order to fill up her gas tank for this trip, I had to guess at the size of her car's tank, look up the cost of premium grade gas in France, use a mapper to get the distance from Tours to the Chateau, do the math, convert to/from metric to US measures, and then send the money by PayPal. It worked, but would be so much easier if she set up something like the BMAC service. If it was quick & easy to contribute a little or a lot, many more subscribers would help defray her costs. This was a day trip, but viewer funding will be more important for her trip to Normandy and other distant points of interest. There will be overnight lodging, meals, and other travel expenses.
Marie has 45,000+ subscribers. If even 10% of them could/would contribute $1-5 a few times a year, she’d be set to go!
@@billunwin7624 You're right, Bill. Marie should take a lesson from buskers. They perform in public places where all can enjoy their art -- but always have an open instrument case, basket, or other container to accept donations. It's "tip-jar funding." Patreon is "subscription funding", and that's not for everyone. "Buy Me a Coffee" and similar "tip jar" systems are a perfect emulation of the busker's instrument case -- toss in a few $$ if you like what you see and hear. Today, the cost of gas in France is roughly $1.85 per liter ($7.00 per U.S. gallon.) That liter of fuel should take Marie's car roughly 10.5 miles. The round trip to Chambord was 100 miles (10 donations of one liter.) Her upcoming trip to Normandy will be 400 miles (38 donations of one liter.)
Great video Marie. That's a beautiful place but if you are the Princess of the Castle shouldn't you at least have a map or an aide so you don't get lost so much, just saying 😉 I really enjoyed this one and hope to see more like this. Take care and be safe!
J’ai beaucoup aimé entendre la chanson des oiseaux. “The Eastern Goldfinch” est l’oiseau officiel de l’état de New Jersey aux États-Unis. “The Bald Eagle” is a national symbol of the USA. 🦅🚴♂️👍🌸☀️🌎⚽️⚾️😉
Le fameux escalier qui a inspiré celui d'Anor Londo dans Dark Souls
Good video, Marie. Wow, nice place, they don't build them like that anymore!
Lol. im going to start measuring everything in Marie's🥰🤣 I live near the largest in Castle/Home in America 🇺🇸. Called Biltmore Estate in Ashville NC USA
I would be so tempted to go from room to room shouting "Let them eat cake!" and "Off with their heads!"
Loved the Satchmo!
I hope the video doesn't get demonetized because she used it.
Just look at the size of that place...and yet, I bet there is still a line for the girls only bathroom.
This comment isn’t funny but that castle doesn’t have a dungeon where they tie up and torture bad people. That would of been cool to see. 😀
Peas in a pod! Des pois dans une cosse!
There was a parked Hoffman Citroen in your video-is that Yours!?
Oh no! Wish it was 😂
Why didn't you ride the roller coaster built around one of the upper turrets?
Une blonde, une rousse et une brune fuient les gardes du Château de Chambord vers 1650.
Ils trébuchent dans une salle de stockage de l'autre côté du donjon qui est empilée de boîtes, de tonneaux et de sacs. La rousse vide précipitamment un tas de pommes de terre d'une des toiles de jute et grimpe à l'intérieur. La brune et la blonde emboîtent rapidement le pas.
Les gardes sont sur le point de se précipiter devant la salle de stockage mais entendent quelque chose à l'intérieur et vont enquêter : personne ne semble être là.
L'un des gardes donne un coup de pied interrogateur dans un sac étrangement placé - celui dans lequel se cache la brune - et est récompensé par un "miaou!"
"Juste un sale chat", explique le garde, alors qu'il donne un coup de pied à un autre.
Cette fois, c'est la rousse : "Ouah, ouah" elle pousse un cri strident !
- Juste un putain de chien, alors, dit le garde.
Il voit un troisième sac, et cette fois c'est celui de la blonde. Pensant avoir compris le truc, elle s'exclame : "Pomme de terre ! Pomme de terre ! Pomme de terre !"
Je n'ai le droit d'utiliser cette blague que parce que Marie est brune! 🤣🥰 Merci de ne pas m'inscrire au concours car j'ai eu la chance de visiter Chambord en personne !
-----------------------
A blonde, a redhead and a brunette flee from the guards of the Château de Chambord around 1650.
They stumble into a storage room on the other side of the dungeon which is stacked with boxes, barrels, and sacks. The redhead hastily empties a pile of potatoes from one of the burlap bags and climbs inside. The brunette and the blonde quickly follow suit.
The guards are about to rush past the storage room but hear something inside and go to investigate: no one seems to be there.
One of the guards questioningly kicks a weirdly placed bag - the one the brunette is hiding in - and is rewarded with a "meow!"
"Just a dirty cat," the guard explains, as he kicks another.
This time, it's the redhead: "Woof Woof" she gives a shrill cry!
"Just a lousy dog” said the guard.
He sees a third bag, and this time it's the blond’s. Thinking she understood what to do, she exclaims: "Potato! Potato! Potato!"
I can only use this joke because Marie is a brunette! 🤣🥰 Please do not enter me in the contest because I’ve been fortunate enough to visit Chambord in person!
What? No wine cellar?!? 😳🍷🍷
Did you meet any Americans on your visit to the castle?
Yes! I mean not meet but saw and heard a couple 😍
@@FrenchTastic very cool, maybe next time you could talk to an American on camera? BTW hello from Arizona 🌵🙋
the beds were small because they slept sitting up
no wonder there's a shortage of wildlife , lol, ancestors carried on the tradition.
I wouldn't want to be the guy that had to cut and split all of the wood to heat that place.
