today was our last full day in paris, and we had a great one. we woke up this morning and took care of some reservations at the train station for our trip down south tomorrow, and then ventured out on the suburban paris metro lines to versailles. we got off the train, and walked about five minutes from the station, turned right, and there it was. the palace was so incredible... no detail was spared. we got to tour through all the private chambers of the royal family, and we saw marie antionette's bedroom and the king's hall of mirrors and the peace drawing room. everything about the place was unbelievable... the hallways were long, the arches were high, and the highlight was probably the chapel. the grounds were just as impressive as the palace itself. the gardens are kept immaculately, and we took some pretty amazing photos. tonight we headed to the bastille quarter for supper. we
were supposed to meet kate's friend joanna, and we waited, but she was about 45 minutes delayed when the ATM in the station ate her bank card, so we decided something had come up and we went to find a place to eat ourselves. we ended up at this trendy little bistro called chez oscars, and we had the best meal we have had in p
aris. tonight we have been packing up our bags and getting ready for our early morning train to antibes, to visit chris and james for the weekend. the weather forecast looks nice and warm, so we are very excited for the weekend!
