When you get your ticket, you're handed a booklet kind of thingy with all the explenations about the castle and the histroy of it. Before this you'll find a page warning you about the fact that since the castle is so old, it's floors and stairs are very uneven. So you need to watch your step.
And so i did. At least at all the difficult places. And then i more or less ran down these stairs. because there wasn't too much too see. And i had just taken this photo.... And at a nano-second in which my attention was drawn elsewhere i steps into a sort of hollow with my left foot. Causing my left ankle to sprain and my right knee made an ugly twist. And there i lay halfway donw those steps in agonising pain... and it was 2 floors below entrance (and by now urgently exit-) level... That did cost me my mobility for the rest of the time i was in France....
So, you're warned!

So this was our first destination of the new year. We headed out somewhere around 3pm when we had FINALLY gotten out of bed to the car horn. :-))
