Day 6 in Paris - Versailles





We took a day trip out to the Palace of Versailles. The girls were excited to ride the double decker train. We sat on top and had a nice view as we rode outside of the city to Versailles. The hall of mirrors was very cool. I can’t image palace live. Marie Antoinette might have had a bad rap, but she had the right idea to get out of the palace! She created an estate all her own. We enjoyed that the best. There was a theater, gardens, a cave, a farm and lots of play areas of the kids of Marie Antoinette's time. We had an awesome family day here. We were very tired from all of the walking, but it was well worth it. 

I think this was the night that we drank absinthe too. Good times with good friends! :)
