The three of us went to the castle again, before it was just Colette and I. We were waiting until the weather cooled off a bit, no sense climbing up a 45% angled path in 100 degree waether. Here's a picture of the front door of the castle, just beyond the moat. You can see the small door inset is only about 4' high.
Here is the top of floor of the actual castle. The structure is one of two remaining buildings out of about 10 when it was being used.
Colette sits on a fence posing with a bird. The pidgeon was tagged, we're not sure by whom or what for.
Just outside the castle, Colette loves riding on my shoulders.
She walks ok like this, but it's slow going.

The castle is spectacular. I get the impression that Marugame is off the beaten track for international tourists. But of course it also has ancient and beautiful things. Do you walk or bike to it? Is it far from where you live? Even though I know Marugame is large, your photos give an impression of cultivated and cared-for country living, with rice fields and mountains. We can't wait to come see you. Also, it's good seeing an occasional photo of Nicolle--I thought we cured you of your photo phobia! Love,
