In Belle-Isle-en-Terre, there is this chateau located in the forest of Coat-an-Noz. It is said that Lady Mond used to live here.
Here is the story of the renovation of the castle:
The story:
“Since 1949, we have been the sixteenth owners,” slips, a bit amused, Bernard Moreau on the steps of the impressive building. The umpteenth owners who, in four short years, saved the former princely residence from collapse. Because abandoned for ages, the castle of Coat-an-Noz did not look great when the couple from the Paris region discovered it in 2010.

The chateau during spring time
The first time I came here, it was during the autumn season and I was pregnant with my first-born child. This was taken using my husband's phone.
We parked our car one kilometer away from the castle so that we had the time to enjoy our walk.
We came back here after the first baby was born. My husband took care of the baby with the stroller and he let me enjoy taking photos during springtime.
It was so cool to take photos because the sky is blue.
Dandelions just sprouting everywhere.
Taraxacum
According to Wikipedia:
Taraxacum (/təˈræksəkəm/)[3] is a large genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae, which consists of species commonly known as dandelions. The scientific and hobby study of the genus is known as taraxacology.[4] The genus is native to Eurasia and North America, but the two most commonplace species worldwide, T. officinale (the common dandelion) and T. erythrospermum (the red-seeded dandelion), were introduced from Europe into North America, where they now propagate as wildflowers.[5] Both species are edible in their entirety.[6] The common name dandelion (/ˈdændəˌlaɪ.ən/ DAN-də-ly-ən; from French dent-de-lion 'lion's tooth') is also given to specific members of the genus.

We walked further to see how nice it is from afar. When I posted this on FB, my cousin thought this is our house. Hehehe!
I never dared to get inside even though there were no people around. Hehe! I thought maybe there is a camera installed and I don't want to be an intruder. Hahaha!
For the Wednesday Walk, I just enjoyed taking photos of the castle. I hope you like it.
The photos above were taken using an Olympus Tough TG-3. I am planning to buy a new Olympus Tough as the old camera is now broken. This camera can be used underwater and I can also use it for point-and-shoot.
