Versaille, Swans, and Boats

After thinking Starry Night was at the Louvre, we looked at Musee D'Orsay.. where it typically is... Normally, it would have been there but the Starry Night was online at the MoMa in New York... The Orsay was a beautiful museum though... and although no pictures were allowed we had a great time..



After that we did some more walking around Paris, including the Jardin d'Tulleries, Notre Dame, and the famous love lock bridge.


The next day we went to Versailles, Marie Antoinettes palace... it was incredibly extravagant... now you understand the frustration of the French revolution!! But beautiful nonetheless... We walked and walked and walked and just when our feet didnt work anymore, we got lost and ended up half-crawling (after waiting 30 min for a bus that didnt show) back to the entrance of the palace and to the train.


We stumbled back into Paris just in time for a boat ride on the Seine, complete with wine, crepes, and Champagne.
