    i saw her chapel has been finished and the notre dame amazing
    what i find so astonishing i went to hungary budapest where there are many chateaux too but due to their sad past of the evasion of russian what is sadly not stopped so many
    people left the country too live in peace
    history is repeating itself whats not nice
    its a pleasure to see your vlogs and trips in that area
    on my stay i saw an amazing church like the chapel of stefanie full of stars on the ceiling
    i thank you for your vlogs and hope to see more
    as the vlogs of stefanie are overflowed by comments i hope you can read my comment and tell in person to stefanie my hallo
    wish you all a merry christmas
    communicating this way is not the best but we all hope in some way to receive a answer and
    best wishes to you all😊😊

    Wonderful vlog! I always love seeing the gang together. I admit, your's and one other Chateau vlog (I won't say whose), were the only two, I watched in the past two months. Unfortunately, I honestly didn't have time to say how great your vlogs have been. But, they were! My property in Sarasota came away unscathed. Only the bottom of boxes were wet. So we repacked those. The pics you showed of the St. Petersburgh beaches empty were as I saw on St. Armands Key. St. Armands Key looked like a bomb had gone off. Never, in over 40 years, had I seen it like this. Furniture piles taller than fifteen feet high. Boats washed onto land in the bay, and you could barely get on the beaches with all the mountains of new sand dunes. Fortunately, they were almost gone by the night we left Florida. Anyway, Patrick and Stuart gave a wonderful get together for you all. Please, keep your vlogs coming. They're my go to, to relax, smile, and pick me up on hectic days. Thank you again for the hard work you put in to making them!

    I used to tell men who wore a hat to the table they had to do the dishes. That's the rules! Women don't count of course.

      Oh but women DO count. However, their hats at table do as well.
