A Day At Biltmore Estate

We spent the day at the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, NC.  What a beautiful home/mansion.

Those are stairs outside these windows (maybe for washing)

I don't know what this tree is, but it was beautiful next to a bridge

No pictures were allowed to be taken inside.  It was absolutely beautiful and restored perfectly.  Needless to say, we had a wonderful day.
