Versailles

Well, after waiting for two and a half hours, we finally got into the Palace of Versailles. Luckily, it was beautiful and we enjoyed a crowded tour around with audio guides. The meltdown didn't happen until around 3, when we finally reached a food destination.

We had to wait in line to get in... And then wait at the counter... And when we finally got to the counter about half hour later, they ran out of sandwiches. We stormed off and I went to use the bathroom. The bathroom had a ridiculously long line!!! At this point, a hangry Brad almost lost his shit and began flailing his arms and stomping around like a beta fish that saw it's own reflection. When we went to leave the snack parlour, there were sandwiches left there. Brad cut in front of the line, the man handed him two, we paid and inhaled them. We were sort of better after this.

We finished the Palace (hall of mirrors was amazing) and toured the gardens. Unfortunately, none of the foundations were on, but the extravagance of the gardens was unmatched. We walked around to the king's "break" house to get away from his job. It was at this point we both realized we were done. Versailles was beautiful, but to be quite honest the whole experience was Hell.

We took the train back to Paris and took the metro to the Sacre Coeur after dinner. It was beautiful and we got to watch the sunset.  The setting sun on the view of the city was spectacular. Brad negotiated two beer for 3€. Bonus!

We are now drinking wine on our balcony. Pretty great way to end the day!
