I FINALLY MADE IT TO VERSAILLES!!!!! :) I woke up bright eyed at 7:30..to make it to the RER... granted I got hit by the doors... running into the train and I was worried the entire time that I was on the wrong train, but then I started to play the fun game called count the travel books... (They were all Rick Steve so it's alright) I had mine out too... so I'm not judging.
Once I got there It was packed... but I zipped on through... because of my trustly european school Id... The Chateau was even more beautiful then I remembered... and this time I got to see the Hall of Mirrors and the Petit Trinon. I was not upset to go alone, until I saw the cute little row boats that you could take on the fountain/man made lake. I considered taking one out by myself, but then I thought I would just look pitiful... so I didn't, but next time... whoever goes with me... we're getting a boat... and we can even sing the T.I. song.
I loved sitting outside in the gardens. It was so sunny and beautiful today.... (the perfect day to go). I really had a lovely time. The only part that I didn't enjoy was flashing all of versaille with the silly skirt that didn't seem to want to remain close to me... but rather it ventured out... leaveing my rear end for all the world to see.
COFFEE.COFFEE.COFFEE.COFFEE.COFFEE.COFFEE,COFFEE,COFFEE,COFFEE.COFFEE.COFFEE,COFFEE.COFFEE.COFFEE,COFFEE,
Spur of the moment decision...ORSEY MUSEE.... they had a special show called Crime and Punishment that is closing in two days... and since I won't be here I wanted to see it before it closed. It was quite wonderful... It had alot of things pertaining to murders and exicutions... I found it very interesting... THEN OFF TO MY LOVES MONET and DUMAS. lovelovelove... I also was able to catch up with Renoir, Van Gogh, Manet...and a few other dear friends.... in order of musee and time periods it goes Louvre, ORSAY then Pompidou... Orsay is from late 1800s to mid 1920s... so next is the Pompidou to catch up with the history of art.
Tomorrow we leave for Montpeiller.... The train that Sonia and I were supose to be on is on Strike so instead of the 7am train we will be on the 6am train which means I have to wake up around 4 or 4:30... (I'll play that one by ear).
Till we meet agian.
