On August 1st, Adrien brought me to a beautiful chateau in the countryside for a " welcome to France drink" before we went to his family's home... the surroundings were so beautiful, I was in heaven. We pulled in & I had a special feeling, the property was stunning. We got two glasses of champagne overlooking the lawn & water. It was so dreamy. He asked if I'd like to try to stay there sometime & of course I said I would be thrilled. As he had told me, we were 20 minutes from his fathers house. He came back 5 minutes later with a key. The gardens, the grounds, the view over the water, the princess room with vaulted ceilings and beautiful chandelier... it was a fairytale. We took a walk before our dinner down by the water to this dock where the sea & the river merge...That's when he handed me a beautiful envelope covered in flowers & birds & maps. He told me to look inside & there I found the boarding pass from the day we met, 12/5/17. It was so cute he still had it.... but it got better. He told me to turn it over....written in French it said will you marry me? I was speechless! He got down on one knee and gave me the ring..Oui!!!! Pure magic! We walk back up to the chateau & he insisted on going to our room before dinner... I didn't understand why, but I went with it. He had coordinated with the hotel (no clue when!!) and we walked into a display of beautiful flowers, champagne from the family vineyard we stayed at last month, & a Delta A330 airplane model.. On the airplane he wrote the date we met on the belly of the plane & drew a heart over the windows of 6 & 7... the seats we were in! While we were sitting at dinner he brings up our location..... he tells me, "You still don't know where we are, do you?" I thought we were 20 minutes from the house. Nope. He pulled up a map and I learned where we were. Literally 2.5 hours from his familys house!!! He totally fooled me. I am normally always looking at maps when we travel, I am so glad I didn't on this day!
