Paris - Day 4






June 28th, Day 4: Versailles was the last stop on our Paris trip. Ridiculously opulent is the best way to describe it -- we sorta understand why Louis VI's and Marie Antoinette lost their heads. The gardens alone were insane - fountains shooting off in any direction, a constructed canal, miles and miles of pathways throughout the grounds. The palace itself had 800 rooms, of which we saw perhaps 10 and it took us an hour. We post up the room called, the Hall of Mirrors, which has 42 chandeliers and the hall is lined with mirrors to reflect the candles at night and the sun during the day. Enjoy.
