Versailles and voila la tour EIffel

---

Left the hotel early to make our way to Versailles. The trip by the metro and RER lines should have been a simple one but made lengthy and rather difficult because of closure to line C. Finally got there and was blown away by the size of the landmark.

Walked the gardens, went to the grand and petite trianons and finally the palace. We were fortunate enough to have the fountains working to a background of baroque music. A big day with lots of walking and lucky that the lines were moving and the day was not too warm.

Note to self: Too many fresh crusty baguettes, camembert cheese and french pastries are fattening - no matter how much walking you do!

Although we were very sore and tired, we decided to see the Eiffel Tower at night. It was spectacular and we were not disappointed.

Came back to the hotel at midnight and time for bed
