May 4 Canal d'Orléans and Jargeau


Today we decided to take a hike on one of the many hiking/biking trails along the Canal d'Orléans.  The trail we took leads from Chécy, which is the little community near us, to the community of Donnery.

Here is a picture of a mustard field beside the canal, these yellow fields are all over the place and are so beautiful.

This picture is for Lisa, this is where the gnomes really belong. Don't they look sad?

In the afternoon we went to poke around in St Denis de l'Hôtel and Jargeau, which is a short drive from here, have you ever wondered what "seven swans a swimming" looks like?  Well we saw 21!
