Hi!
Wednesday we went to the Versailles palace (in Versailles) Louis XIV, Louis XVI, Louis XVII, and Marie-Antoinette were among the kings and queens who lived there. It was HUGE. Like, HUGE HUGE. Also grand. Look:
 |
| Tiny Golden Fat Babies |
 |
| The Gardens |
 |
| The Royal Hall of Mirrors |
See? HUGE HUGE GRAND. Don't even ask about the «bébés minuscules en gras d'or.» The Hall of Mirrors glass is French glass. Not Czech. It's so pretty. Near the Grand and Petit Trianons, look:
 |
| At the Grand Trianon |
 |
| Guarding the Grand Trianon |
 |
| In the Roots |
"In the Roots" is, literally, in the roots of a felled tree. You should see me "sleeping".
On the ride home, we took a RER-C, like we did to get there. Going to Brussels, we'll take a high-speed double-decker TGV. It should be fun. I hope my mom will make a more detailed follow-up. Note my quote format. Bye!
From Ally: just a quick note to say that I was able to finish up in the archives and meet them at Versailles in time to hear Seb make this alarming declaration: "Now I am getting a lot of ideas for how to decorate my room!"
