I have fallen a bit behind on blogging, but not because I am short of material. Dear me, no. I'd like to share with you several photos from a recent outing to Versailles with two dear friends.
It was a sunny day, beautiful as could be, when we boarded the train towards Versailles. The trip took a mere twenty-five minutes or so, and seemed to pass much more quickly due to our snappy conversation, pretty landscape, and promise of a lovely day. Our major goal for the day was to rent bikes, a goal which frightened one of my friends immensely as she had not ridden a bike in 10 years. Luckily, I was able to convince her that I myself had only relearned the art last summer, and she was going to have a ball.
As we went on a Wednesday, the crowds were minimal. I was still shocked by how many visitors there were, and am sure I could not bear the amount of people on a weekend. We enjoyed enormous soft-serve ice creams, wandered through the mazes, biked as many trails as we could, napped and read books in the lush grass on the far end of the gardens. It was exquisite.
