I decided to take a quick break from posting photos from my
trip home to catch up on some European travel posts. This one is way overdue –
from April!
Right after my mom left, we hopped a plane for a quick
weekend in Paris with a family friend. You may remember – that’s when we made
our wish on the lock bridge.
We also had the opportunity to go to Versailles on this
trip. It was even more gorgeous and awe-inspiring than I thought it would be. I
can’t believe we waited until our third trip to Paris to go to Versailles – big
mistake! If you’re ever there, you must make time to see it. You truly feel
like you’ve been transported to a time long, long ago. It’s a powerful, grand
place that lives up to all the hype.
Here are some photos from the Gardens of Versailles…
Tomorrow I’m sharing photos from Marie Antoinette’s Estate and the Palace of
Versailles – enjoy!

I have been to Paris twice and yet to see Versaille - we tried to go last time but entrance tickets were sold out! The next time we go, I'm planning ahead as I must see this in person!

ReplyDeleteMy husband and I were in Paris (and at Versailles - stunning!) in April for part of our honeymoon.
ReplyDeleteOh your pics are gorgeous! Everyone I have ever spoken to about Paris has complained that they walked themselves to near-death, did you guys feel like this?

ReplyDeleteBreathtaking photos! I think Versailles is definitely a destination for lovebirds, so much romance to be had!
ReplyDeleteI was in Versailles last week and was joking with Mike that we've been to Versailles in the summer, winter, and fall but not in the spring and I wondered what it would look like. Stunning, obviously.

So pretty! It rained the whole time I was in Paris so I didn't get to see the gardens. Now I have an even better excuse to go back!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos! It looks so beautiful there!
