{"name": "Ch\u00e2teau de Tiques", "description": "It was a beautiful sunny morning, and we had just had dinner with some French explorers the night before. We were in a good mood and excited to get our day started. We stopped at a grocery store to grab some breakfast and ate it on the way to our first spot. When we pulled up, the little chateau was set back from the road in between some other buildings that lined the sidewalk. We hiked through a wooded area and some tall grasses around the back and went inside the ch\u00e2teau to explore and photograph it. When we were done, we made our way out the same way we entered. Once we were outside the gate and safely on the sidewalk, we sent the drones up. This was the first fly with my new drone, after I had lost my old drone to a tree the day before. As we were flying, my husband saw a tiny tick on his drone controller. My stomach dropped. Ticks are an explorer\u2019s worst nightmare. They live in tall grasses looking for a host to feed off of, and certain kinds of ticks can give humans Lyme disease. When we landed the drones, we quickly checked all our clothes to see if we had any crawling on us. We didn\u2019t, so we went about our day as usual. Later in the evening when we got to our AirBNB, I was about to hop in the shower when I noticed what I thought was a tiny spec of dirt on the front of my thigh and I tried to brush it off. It didn\u2019t move. I looked closer, and sure enough, it was a tick - smaller than a sesame seed. This meant we would have to search our clothes, suitcases, car, and AirBNB to make sure we didn\u2019t find anymore. Additionally, at this point in the evening, all the shops were closed, so we couldn\u2019t go buy tweezers to pull the tick off me. I was freaking out. My husband ended up having to pinch two butter knives together to pull it out of my skin. And I spent a good hour or so reading up on tick bites to see if I could calm my anxiety. Luckily, I learned that in most cases, if you get the tick off within 24 hours, you have a very small chance of contracting Lyme. So that made me feel better, but I still had to monitor myself for symptoms of Lyme disease for the next 30 days. Thankfully, I was fine, and this ended up being one of my favorite ch\u00e2teaus of the trip, regardless of the tick bite.", "image": "ipfs://QmeDRB2dPtXU7hcWQo7icztbFa7HHccy7v5Qq6Z5mjQveV/media", "image_sha256": "08e21ea7d84f8121ed92a339b5180a60d2e679413b43728cd96b96361a413465", "attributes": [{"trait_type": "Artist", "value": "the_sparkler"}, {"trait_type": "Camera", "value": "DJI Mini 4 (Drone)"}, {"trait_type": "Date", "value": "July 4, 2024"}, {"trait_type": "Shutter Speed", "value": "1/3000 sec"}, {"trait_type": "F-stop", "value": "F1.7"}, {"trait_type": "ISO", "value": "130"}, {"trait_type": "Building Type", "value": "Ch\u00e2teau"}, {"trait_type": "Country", "value": "France"}], "tags": ["photography", "castle", "ch\u00e2teau", "abandoned", "urbex", "france", "drone", "architecture", "the_sparkler"], "media": {"uri": "ipfs://QmeDRB2dPtXU7hcWQo7icztbFa7HHccy7v5Qq6Z5mjQveV/media", "dimensions": "7101x3994", "size": "23967285", "mimeType": "image/jpeg"}}
