Paris

Day 2
We went to Versailles.
 I started trying to describe all these photos, but i gave up about halfway through, there are simply too many!
but let me just tell you, i would have beheaded the king and queen living in this splendor if i couldn't feed my children.....

the flowers in the garden were amazing!


No that isn't that palace just the theatre.... Apparently Marie Antoinette enjoyed herself some thespian entertainment...


this was... the grand trinau, (no idea how to spell it)


the fountain in the back yard... should i say ONE of the fountains

the pearly gates... nope i mean the golen gates...



really? yeah, just your average ceiling paint job.... oye, amazing!



King Louie's bed room, should we wonder, i mean hello-o it is PINK!!!!


Backyard....
And this.... also the backyard.....
Yep more yard....

Such amazing architecture....



the famous hall of mirrors
Marie Antoinette's jewelry box... it huge! wouldn't you like to see what was inside.... me too.



mom was pretty worn out after we explored the grounds....

fresh squeezed orange juice seemed to perk her/ us right up, it was yum  yummy!




So pretty!

Marble and gold everywhere!

Some random house on the garded...

A little meeting house in the gardens

poor mom... really worn out
