Where Did You Have Your Epiphanie? - Versailles

Say hello to Lindsay, writer of the blog Confessions of a Bookworm. Lindsay recently returned from a two week trip to Europe with her Pink Belle. Part of her trip included a stop in Versailles.

How much would you give to be Lindsay in this very photo right this second?

Lindsay insists that you must do the following when visiting Versailles:

1) Take in the gorgeous (and grandiose!) Palace of Versailles! See the amazing artwork and architecture, as well as items such as Napoleon’s throne and Marie Antoinette’s bedroom!

2) Wander the labyrinthine gardens of the Palace of Versailles- you can explore for hours and not see it all! And if you get tired of walking, you can rent bikes and golf carts!

3) Take a rowboat out on the Grand Canal in the gardens of Versailles!

4) Find and explore one of the many smaller palaces-turned-museums with in the gardens of Versailles, including Marie Antoinette’s personal retreat, the Petit Trianon!

5) Enjoy the scents and flavors of Versailles by meandering through the open-air produce market or the flower market near the palace.
