Chateau de Caix, Cahors, France

[Sun Lion]

A clarification Tarlita - your photo with the blue sofa and piano is called the living room on the website I saw it on, but there is another living room in my magazine article - the two-storey one with the gallery running along the top that is combined with the dining area - so perhaps two living rooms. The one in your photo seems more formally furnished than the one in my magazine.

Cheers, Sun Lion.

Hi again cepe - please post your photos if you get to Chateau de Caix - I'm sure we'd all like to see and hear about a first hand experience of the property,

Sun Lion.

Sorry - one more bit of info I meant to post - (getting late here in Sydney and passed my bedtime - getting a bit dopey.)

There is a photo of the patio also in the "Skona Hem" article on Google Images - (type Chateau de Cayx and see Tarlita's blue sofa photo in the top line and enter there.)

Interesting as the photos we see of the Royal Family are usually taken when they're on this patio, and it is quite wide and has a round mosiac table which has a grill in the centre.

Cheers Again, Sun Lion.

Why do royal families have personal properties - in their own countries and abroad? (real state, jewels, works of art). Because they are wise. What would happen if the Danish decide to abolish the monarchy? Frederik should have means to support himself despite eventual compensation offered by the State. The abolisment of the monarchy in Denmark is very much unlikely to happen in our life time but not an impossible event. Royal know much better than us that History repeats itself and that you should not put all your eggs in the same basket.
