From Neglected to Stunning + We Take a Break and Explore France! 

Pickle! So cute. You guys are so funny. I laughed out loud when I saw Lincoln on the bike with a baguette and beret. 😂 those drone shots of the coast were stunning! Such a beautiful part of the world.

It might have felt stupid, but Lincoln looked so cute as the typical "French man" carrying the baget and wearing the top !! I sure appreciated your sense of humour. I think Pickle's middle name is quite apt. Especially considering his pranks on the stairs lol What a little character. A night in Paris by yourself........aaah dreams are made of this!!!!

Happy to see that Lincoln is paying attention to ensuring there are sufficient provisions for winter - 499 bottles of Dom should get you through to April nicely 🍾🥂

Pickle has certainly landed on his feet and moved up in the world

I understand Lincoln wants to be able to speak French and understand French , but I don’t think he needs to smoke😂 to pick up the language. You never cease to muse me thank goodness Lincoln and Amanda have such a great sense of humor. Pickles Dracula, and his antics of going up and down the stairwell are quite amusing.😂 Thank you for taking us no matter what drone, footage or clips you’ve taken they were beautiful. From the subway in Paris to the cafés, light houses, gardens, and fields, and shoreline are simply magnificent! Thank you for all your hard work.

That was so funny… Lincoln on the bike, carrying the baguette 😂

Well done Pickle to choose such a great family!

I love the blue doors! They really pop against the white walls. 😊 The scenery pictures are gorgeous. Such a lovely place to live. ❤️

Lincoln and his baguette…. I’m dying 😂😂😂😂

What a stunning coastline. Loved the photos and drone shots of your travels. France is a beautiful country. What an eventful day you had in Paris. Great videos of your fun day. The highlight of the video was Lincoln wearing the traditional French striped shirt and a beret with a baguette under his arm riding a bicycle with the beautiful French scenery in the background. Priceless!! Love your subtle humorous videos. xx

Pickle already starting on those 9 lives of his. Loved this video.

My first cat was named pickles! He loved donuts. I love your lamp. You should put it in your office. A subtle reminder of the beauty of imperfection ❤

Good for you for treating yourself to a day in Paris. You two work so hard, having two weeks off sounds wonderful. I love your sense of humour.

A cat from Cirque du Soleil🐈‍⬛magnifique performance on banister

You gave me some good laughs today, as well as a feast for the eyes with the beautiful architecture. I wish you continued success with your projects and thank you for sharing your journey with us. Best wishes from western Canada!

Pickle Dracula is adorable 🥰 what a sweetheart! Wonderful video too!

Delightful! Loved all the segments. Awesome views including Lincoln’s improved drone skills capturing scenery of places in France many of your viewers will not be able to make it to. Great job!

Excellent filming in Paris & the cycling section was a hoot 😊

Sometimes I forget how beautiful Paris is and the coastline of France. Growing up in the SF Bay Area I really appreciate a lovely coastline. Call me a sucker but I enjoyed your wandering.

“No not cocaine” you are hilarious, I love your humour. Thank you for the laughs and all your hard work as I sit on my couch.

I just watched one of your question and answer, videos, and just have to tell you how much I love your vlogs. I have been a fan of the chateau channels since covid, but if ihad to choose a lifestyle and a chateau I could see myself in, it would be yours. There is nothing ostentatious or phony about you two, nor your life together. I love your exquisite taste(I am a retired design consultant and very fussy!), your determination and your ability to wait, take your time and do it right. I share your enthusiasm in rescuing animals, and wish I could do more myself. I have restored two 200 plus year old properties in Nova Scotia Canada, and understand that special joy that comes with getting to know and love your old home,its history and its ghosts. Though I did it on a much smaller scale, the emotional rewards were every bit as great. Kudos to you and Lincoln, keep up the good work, I will be with you as long as you are you-tubing! Iam living vicariously through you!

Between the cats and the donkeys you've got some great children books. This week the husband and I went browsing in local second hand shops and found a coffee table book titled The French Cat. Of course I had to buy it. Pickle is adorable and I too aspire to have seven cats. The lamp is hilarious, are you sure you weren't drinking when you hit the "add to cart"? Love you guys!

Your cats are adorable! Enjoy the 499 bottles of Dom Perignon!!

Loved this! One of your best yet! Shots from Paris were gorgeous! Great music too!

Your videos are great. I found you a few weeks ago and binge watched every single episode!!! Love your humour and the beautiful transformation of your chateau. I'm also in the SF Bay area and hoping to work up the nerve to move and buy a chateau....you inspire me :-)

Yay to your new cat Pickle. Scared me when he was on the handrail a half zillion feet up; just so casual! More big wows for the blue doors! A color I love and have in my house. Still love all the decor stuff. Take care!

Great video! Not to mention all the laughs. Thank you!

In America we have televisions that are mirrors when not in use. They have a very fancy frame on them and look quite like just a common mirror but when you turn it on it is a regular television.

Love Pickle Dracula 🐈‍⬛ I love seeing the country side and old chateaux. I can’t help imagining how life might have been back then. Thanks for sharing 😍😘

Your wander around Paris was inspiring. I must get there some day. The hotel looked cozy too! ❤

Pickle Dracula...🤣🤣🤣 I died 😂🤣😂🤣

Fun video today!

That salon is neither petite or small. What a job, but it’s coming right along. Beautiful. Glad to see Lincoln taking his part of the sponsor commercials so seriously and giving it his all.

Drank Champagne at noon. You radical you. Now you are truly French! 🇫🇷

I would never be sad about a trip to Paris. ❤Paris and, YES, drink champagne at noon or just about any time. 🍾

Lincoln was so funny. That seemed like a great stay cation and trip to Paris. Hi Pickle Dracula.❤

At first I didn’t realize that the “random man on a bike wearing a beret and carrying a baguette under his arm” was Lincoln. 😂 I enjoyed the footage of your vacation and Paris. Also, I have to say how impressed I am with the restoration of the ceiling in the petit salon! Votre travail est superieure! It’s probably misspelled and I remember little from my four years of French lessons many moons ago, but you get the gist! ❤️❤️

No Cocaine !! Your sense of humor kills me 🤣. As for the green fuzzy lamp the first thing I thought of was a Chia Pet. Maybe it grows when you plug it in 😂🤣. Those grocery prices are crazy but I’m not surprised. Lol at those prices everybody must be skinny.

Love your sense of humor! My life motto is: you are responsible for your own fun/joy. Looks like you believe that too.

Black cats are special and considered good luck if they choose you as their people (ie minions). I always look forward to your videos. Your content, your humor, and this week even a little food porn 🙂. Allowed to say that, right? Anyway made my afternoon. Thank you.

Just love you both! Lincoln on the bike? The best. Beautiful trip to Paris. Thank you!

Oh the gardens at that chateau are so beautiful. And the music is perfect. Made me feel so relaxed watching it! What a dream to visit that garden.

Less expensive to buy Miele fridge than cherries!

Nice progress on the chateau petit salon. And oh I love the new cat! Thanks

I think it is just wonderful that after all the hard work you have been doing and entertaining guests that you had a chance to spend a day in Paris drinking champagne at lunch and wondering around enjoying yourself

Pickle gave me a stairwell heart attack. Bad Kitty 🐱

Our neighbors’s miniature horse is named Mr. Pickles. Great episode - thanks for sharing!

You guys are a riot! Your comments at the beginning made me laugh. Lincoln was so funny riding on that bike dressed like a "homme français". Your videography again is wonderful! Love to see pictures of your trips. Glad to see you had some vacation time away from your renovations.

And I was carping about paying over $7.00 for a small jar of Hellman's! Enjoy. You have the right temperament for Europe.

I love the name Pickle - you do forget how playful Kittens are just love them ! Oh I would be glad to bring you kitty supplies for a visit 😅 I’m loving the colour of the salon doors I didn’t think I would but looks lovely - who doesn’t need a break glad you had a good time ❤ more vlogs pls 🙏🙏❤️❤️

Can’t wait to see your tv gallery wall. The online lamp fail…lol.

The Orsay museum is my favorite in the world!! Would love to visit again.

Hi, I am your long lost cousin who would love to join your 499 bottles of Dom ... and you of course! 😂 That lamp might be a Barbie movie prop!

Hello from New Port Richey Florida USA

I'm envious of Lincoln's ability to "nail it" with the beret and the Britany stripe! Bien joué!

Amanda, your filming, editing and music selections are delightful. Pickles Dracula, classic.

Again, you made me laugh, just sitting in the window sill making stuff up. Pickle is a doll....no doubt you have a lot of live entertainment. That was hilarious watching Lincoln riding his bike with the baguette under his arm. I love the 'short' lessons because I have no patience for the long drawn out explanations anymore! Thank you so much for the grand tour of that lovely chateau and gardens....wow! What a great trip to Paris....lovely and I'm glad you didn't feel guilty.

Thank you for taking us to Paris and showing the sites Amanda.

Pickle on the banister!! He is going to be very entertaining. Maybe even more so than Lincoln! 🤣

I’m loving your videos and loving your dry sense of humour. I look forward to them every week. Thank you for sharing

Lol, you both have a great sense of humor!

You are far from boring you two are entertaining love your videos of your trip

I am quite amazed it must be a culture shock to move from California with everything,g open and running 24H and moving to the exact opposite ,and rural France on top of that ..la Bretagne j' adore c'est tellement beau et encore préservé

I forgot to throw in my name…Juan. What’s Juan more cat? Lol. You can use that for #8. Thanks for sharing your wander around Paris. I’m starting to plan my first trip to France and the only thing i know is that I’ll spend no more than 2 nights in Paris while I get over jet lag. Then I’m just going to meander through the country via train. Love the Lincoln on the bike! 499 bottles of Dom. Hilarious.

Love your humor! Devastatingly beautiful scenery -country, coast and city. My children were kind enough to take me to Paris after they treated me to a British Isles cruise. This episode brought back many memories for me of the unique architecture, the active social life surrounding the Seine, the street markets, and the Musee d’Orsay!” I loved Paris (as a tourist); I am sure it is different than being a resident.

Fried egg flavored chips 😲 I've never seen those before lol 😊 Pickle is so cute!!

Love the “Don’t do it Pickle” already. You need to create T-shirts with the slogan WWPD -What Would Pickle Do. 😂😂

Thank you for today’s lesson. I live in the Laurentians just north of Montreal. My old house was build on an outcrop of pink granite, I did not know it was such a rarety. 😮

i love you guys...and that you don't take life so serious. love Lincoln's bike ride!

Love your commercial. Lol Oh to be in Paris, (France) by my self.

"Le chat ouvrit les yeux, le soleil y entra. Le chat ferma les yeux, le soleil y resta. Voilà pourquoi, le soir, quand le chat se réveille, j'aperçois dans le noir, deux morceaux de soleil".(Poème de Maurice Carême). "The cat opened its eyes and the sun came in. The cat closed its eyes, the sun stayed there. That's why, in the evening, when the cat wakes up, I see two pieces of sun in the dark". (Poem by Maurice Carême). Pickle est un adorable chaton.

Loved all the different segments in this vlog. The music was very cool and spot on with each segment. Paris was beautiful - glad you got to enjoy your wandering. Maine USA

Love watching the cats! So mischievous!

Come on, Amanda, you can’t have too many cats! 🥳

Yours is the only channel where we can sit through the ads - hysterical!

Wow! Next Viking Cruise we take I’m going to have to suggest we spend a week in Paris just to see some of the sights and night life! Glad to see you took some time to mentally relax and enjoy before going home and continue with your renovation journey. Loving your videos!

I could not belive the lamp. Like something out of a droll French movie. Made me laugh out loud, 😂

Oh honey in our crazy world we can use times as you call it boredom special when it is with such beautiful views 😊😊😊❤

Hilarious!

Yay my Sunday comfort blanket ❤️

Great video guys, good fun as always.

CAN'T STOP WATCHING!

We also played Host to 3 sets of guests this year to our Normandy Farmhouse. We made 3 separate trips to Mont St. Michel! Mont St Michel is beautiful, but 3 times was a bit much🤪.

You and Lincoln are so funny! Riding his bike with French beret on his head and baquette under his arm! And I love the name Pickle...I'll bet she is just that...a pickle! I always enjoy watching your vlog. Thanks!

Love the solo Paris shenanigans 😍

Love your vlogs ❤

Love your sense of humor🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾

Beautiful film.

You two are so fun😊

lovely vacation videos!!

Bonjour Amanda and Lincoln, welcome to Chateau de Lingourdy Pickles. Amanda, we love your "boring" vacation videos. The drone shots are amazing, seeing Paris through your lenses is amazing, it's way better than a movie, the city and her surroundings are just back drops to the characters, you show us Paris. Looking forward to the progress in the Petit Salon, Lincoln was perfect on the bike with his French accessories. I love you guys and your channel, thanks for the laughs. Love from N.Y.

Thanks for taking us on your trip to the coast as well as including us in a bit of Paris. All fun!!😊

Beautiful filming of Paris
