Biltmore Estate (morning)

On February 15th, we visited Biltmore Estate, a big house inspired by the Chambort’s castle in France.

In the morning, we were going to an old farm of the property. They were lots of activites that were very interesting. We could see vintage machines where we were having fun to climb on it to and take some pictures. There were some old toys that we could handle too. It was so funny to try them and see the evolution between this period and today. We could also step into workshops featuring job’s presentation like the iron work.

 

After those discoveries, we could observe and touch farm animals. There were hens, chicks, a shell, pigs and goats. One of the goats was pregnant and we could feel the baby move in its tummy. We had a really pleasant time!

We finished this morning with  an exhibition of Downton Abbey’s  traditional  clothes and it was very impressive to watch a new evolution in the textile

 

This morning was very enriching for us, because we were learnt many things about what life was like in the past and we shared many moments together !
