JP and I took a day trip to The Biltmore in Asheville, NC for our 25th wedding anniversary. And when I say day trip, I mean like a really LONG day that happens the morning after we lost an hour for daylight saving time and you have to drive 2.5 hours to reach your destination early in the morning. We left before the sun came up.
This was our first visit to The Biltmore. I was worried it might rain, because where we live that's all we've had since January is RAIN! BUT it was the most gorgeous day we've had in months!
We split breakfast from The Bake Shop on the grounds.
We thoroughly enjoyed looking at all the detailed architecture and magnificent views.
Since we booked ahead of time, we received a free audio tour, which was very informative.
It was quite hard to even imagine what it must have been like to like in this palatial residence. Too hard to even fathom. We enjoyed our tour of the house, but it was so BUSY. There were so many people there. We were glad we had booked an early morning reservation tour time, when we saw the lines later in the afternoon that were so much longer than the ones we experienced.
We had a great day together!
