When we were in Paris, we day-tripped out to the Palace of Versailles. It was everything a palace should be. The inside rooms of the palace are extravagant with gold and other royal-looking decorations. I can't imagine living in such a lavish place. The picture below was taken in the Hall of Mirrors. I loved being there, because in history class, I recently learned about the Treaty of Versailles, which formally ended The First World War, and I was in the place they signed it! Of the whole palace, the backyard was my favorite! The flowers and shrubs are exactly what I've always visualized of what kings and queens got to see and stroll through everyday. They go on and on in every direction and from every window to make such a lovely place to wander. It was such a sunny day! I just had to include this picture because it is so funny!
