Versailles


(Thursday, April 24th) Palace and gardens aside, the biggest memory Spencer may hold of Versailles may be of going through the security check point. He was fascinated by the baggage x-ray machine and couldn't stop discussing it even days afterward. It may have had something to do with the fact that I mentioned they were looking for bananas. Once inside the palace, we were awed by the sheer size and lavishness of the place. The Hall of Mirrors did not fail to impress. We strolled the grounds after our tour enjoying an incredibly sweet ice cream cone as an afternoon pick-me-up.
