Versailles

I love it when you travel somewhere with really low expectations, and get totally blown away. Versailles did this to me. Patricia had seen it on her last visit here but my fresh eyes were in total awe the entire time at this palace of self-indulgence. The gold, tapestry and furniture are truly fit for a king and queen, I loved how if they wanted to honor someone, they built a room for them…reminded me of the Kerrigans and how they built that room for their greyhounds….
It was a great day out there, and really influenced my interest in that period in French history, so I’m counting on Strace to give us another history lesson when we get back!!!
