48 Hours in Paris - Palace of Versailles



Saturday morning we got up and, after eating the most buttery and delicious croissants of my life from Esther's favorite bakery in Paris, we headed to Versailles. First we toured the gardens, but here I'm posting the palace pictures because I found the palace extremely over the top and I think people will agree with me.

The front gates:



Us by the gates:



The sparkly gold palace:



Check out the ceiling in the chapel in the palace:





And *this* is a fireplace:



Some gold doors:



And these are the *ceilings*:







The hall of mirrors, complete with a million tourists:





And its ceiling:



I thought the ceilings were amazing.
