Chateau Chambord
Just stayed in a sprawling campground with complete facilities. lNo designated campground in mind while pedaling my . I just kept pedaling and enjoying the sceneries, then I ran into an sprawling campground of Val de Blois. Then, I ran into a sprawling campground called Val de Blois. It was a windy afternoon that my tent was blown away. Having a sturdy tent is something that I’d like to have in the near future, because you’ll never know up against in any elements.
It seemed that everybody is stopping by here. It became my first stop in the morning. When I got there, it was definitely filling with visitors. I had to fall in line for a few minutes.
