Launch of the 2016 Saison Culturelle @Château de Montpoupon

 Château de Montpoupon: figures in the courtyard




 A couple of ferocious buffons 
guarding the entrance to Montpoupon 



Not even motorcyclists are immune!





 Master of ceremonies announcing 
the arrival of all the noble guests 





Capturing the moment 


 Awaiting the start of proceedings....


Michel Mergot getting attuned to his new accommodation ...
