We also read on the train home. Vanessa didn't think she wanted to read a murder book, but got hooked on hers and was torn tonight between reading it and the one she is about 3/4th the way through!<br />CarolynAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-71502456551383865932013-05-30T00:53:41.199-04:002013-05-30T00:53:41.199-04:00When I was in Paris many years ago, the workers we...When I was in Paris many years ago, the workers were on strike at Versailles.

And I love how weirdly atmospheric and creepy the lighting is on those trains, too. Something about the double-decker thing. Versailles is so lovely and awe-inspiring.

I very much liked the look of those clouds, Carol. Thank you so much for including them in your photos.<br /><br />A macaron gift...of course the patron recognized a true fan when he saw you!<br /><br />Hoping that you will be able to find a way to do some plein air painting. Is is permitted to bring a little folding bench of one's own? If not Versailles, I'm sure you will fine another parc to inspire.<br /><br />xoFranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-88594785307948142632013-05-29T20:17:13.902-04:002013-05-29T20:17:13.902-04:00Be still my heart!!!!

The signage can be difficult to follow, I can see how you mistakenly went the wrong direction. The gardens are so gorgeous fountains on or not, of course the fountains are incredibly special. I love your glimpses of the town of Versailles too. Louisehttp://astrongbeliefinwicker.blogspot.com.aunoreply@blogger.com
