ometime
between 11am and 11:30am, after a phone call from
your chauffeur, you will be picked up from your hotel/accommodation
by an exceptional 1950 Citroën 11B.
You will go
to the vehicle and will leave Paris to join the department
of Seine-et-Marne and an ancient equestrian farm,
not far from Fontainebleau. There, you will be welcomed
by a lackey wearing 18th century dresses. You will
be invited by the man to climb aboard an elegant horse-drawn
carriage.
At instigation of
the coachman, wearing also 18th century dresses, the horses
will pull the carriage to begin the descent of a long path,
their shod hoofs flapping on the pavements. Crossing through
the Graville forest, completely privatized for the occasion,
you will follow the road which Henri IV took, in the 16th
century, with his sweethearts, when he wanted to reach the
Graville castle...
A couple of minutes
later, you will meet, on the edges of an alley, a very strange
man, a 18th century farmer making big signs to you. The
man will approach to your harness and will announce you
the arrival of a mysterious messenger... When suddenly,
a black dressed bandit will pop up from the foliages! While
seeing the bandit, the farmer, totally frantic, will run
away. But, from his horse, the bandit will pursue the farmer,
will catch up with him and will knock down him, promising
him a terrible punishment for the good news he announced
to you.
Screaming for help,
the farmer will draw the attention of a knight, the famous
messenger who, arriving at full gallop, was precisely joining
the Graville castle to find you there. Rapier and leather
sheath around the waist, the gentleman will rescue the farmer
and, from his horse, will bring his sword to challenge the
bandit. Dodges and knocks will enchain in a wild rhythm,
so that the virulence of the duel will make both men fall
on the ground. The messenger, on the ground, will nevertheless
try to continue the fight, but the bandit will get the upper
hand and will beat his opponent...
It is at that precise
moment that the farmer will be back, a wooden stick in his
hand. With boldness and courage, the farmer will take part
in the fight and, in a totally unexpected way, will succeed
in beating the bandit! Beaten and made a fool, the bandit
will run away, staggering and cursing with the laughs of
the providential rescuer. Helped by the farmer, the gentleman
will get up and, as a real and noble messenger, will join
your beloved to give her/him the mysterious object of his
mission: a parchment revealing your declaration of love!
Your partner, savoring the marvellous denouement, will be
left speechless! Then, the horse will rear up and the knight
will run away at full gallop, while the farmer will disappear
in the foliages...
You will end up your epic adventure by stopping in the gardens
of the Graville castle, where an elegant table will be laid
out for a picnic. Discovering the contents of your lunch
in a wicker basket, you will savor "pâté maison",
sausage, Poilâne bread, butter, gherkins, refined cheeses,
fruits, macaroons, fruit juices, tea, coffee and champagne...
