Paris - Versailles

Dinner at Versailles
Check out the cheeses

relaxing in the gardens



Ange and I had a girl's weekend to Paris and had a blast! We took Friday off work (which is always good!) and headed on the eurostar Thursday night to Paris where we feasted on bubbles, figs, crackers, cheese and chocolate followed by a small nap and then we were in Paris. Our hotel was in the sex district, just down the road from the Moulin Rouge.

Breakfast everymorning was included and consisted of croissants, coffee, o.j and cornflakes. Headed to Versailles on the train for the day where we had a look around the township and saw the Castle of Versailles (ange is that what it was called?). We proceeded to look around one of the entrances (not knowing there were 5 !!) and thought it was all over so we headed to the massive gardens and relaxed for a few hours. Heading back to the castle we somehow realised we had only done 1/5th of the castles (by this time it was about 5pm) so hurridley tried to do some more of the tour but only managed one more end of the castle. Unfortunately we missed out on a lot of it but we got to chill out in the gardens in the sun for a few hours which was great. We had dinner in Versailles then headed back to Paris that evening.
