Formal entrance from the St. Lawrence River!

We LOVED this visit. The girls thought they were in paradise! I loved seeing their faces. If you don't know the tragic story of the Boldts check it out. It is quite amazing. The last time I was there to tour the castle NOTHING was done. It was full of graffiti and ruins. The whole first floor and part of the second are done. It was nice to see renovators there while we were exploring rooms. It made me think that in another 10 years when we visit again so much more will be done. Special thanks to our friends the Henry's for making this adventure possible. Thank you thank you thank you so much! xoxo
