December 28:
I went to Versailles!! of course I slept in too late to get there with any time to actually see the palace so I walked the gardens which (although cold) were still very pretty.
Last 5: Front of Versailles
Garden of Versailles and yes that does include all the forest.
Back side of Versailles
In the back corner is the Petit Trianon aka Marie Antoinette's place when she was Queen. I got in for free because I have a student visa! yay me!
Marie Antoinette
Inside of the Petit Trianon
Actual size of the building aka very small
View from her bedroom window
Billards room
I found a swan!
The next few are the little village that Marie Antoinette had built. Literally looks like a little village, I cannot wait until the spring to see this in full swing!
This place is a symbol of the friendship between the States and France.
I found a christmas bush!!
Random bench
This was created to give the gardens a mountain. The king and queen had a mountain built in their garden… thats crazy!
A mountain next to a patio
The Petit Trianon
Even though its winter, a rose is still trying to bloom and this is why they say that France is the country of lovers.
Random fountain in the gardens
The Grand Trianon
The sunset off the Grand Trianon, super cool!
Very pretty sunset
So I read online that one of the metro (subway) cars in Paris was decorated to commemorate Versailles and it is very true cause it was the train I took home!
