Heather, Melissa,
Macord, and I made our way back to Versailles after class yesterday. With blue
skies to cheer us up, we spent a lovely afternoon laying in the flower fields
at Marie Antoinette's hamlet. She created this faux-village as a sort of play house
to which she could escape and throw
make-believe parties. As for the chateau, my opinion improved upon experiencing
the grounds. I've never seen something so regal in my life, nor do I think I
will again. Sometimes I have to remind myself that I'm not at
disneyland, that what I'm seeing is real. I've never had so many moments of
unbelief as I've had here in France, nor have I had so many moments of
magic.
Less than a week left
in Paris, and then I'm off to see the rest of La Belle France!
