Mario, the dogs and I took adventure of our 3 day weekend by spending it in a French Chateau. Our first stop was Bad Säckingen which was about 2.5 hours from the house. This city has a covered bridge which runs over the Rhine River connecting the cities of Bad Säckingen, Germany to Stein Switzerland. This wooden bridge is the longest covered wooden bridge in Europe. From there we drove towards the Longecourt-en-Plaine, France which was about 3 hours. We would be spending two nights at the Chateau of Longecourt. I came across this propery when browsing on AirBnB one night. We arrived right at check in which is 5pm. Out host was very welcoming and show us to our room. We would send two night in the Louis XVI room. The next morning I headed to breakfast which was included with the room. It had bread, jam and cheese. While at breakfast, I was talking with the host. He said there is about 15 rooms total but currently only 6 are for guest. While I was out walking the dogs I notice a stain-glass window, so I asked him about it. He said it belongs to the chapel which he opened for me so I could see it. After breakfast I explored a little more of the hallways. We decided to drive about 30 minutes to the city of Dijon. We walked around taking in the sites. We left the next morning around 8am, arriving home a little after lunch time. We only hit a little bit of traffic. Another great trip in the books!
