Gardens of Versailles

Wednesday, 7 August 2013

The sun was warm, hot even, and the shade was cool - the perfect early June weather.  Class after class of school children lined the Grand Canal, spreading the groups long and thin against the tall, manicured trees to take respite from the heat.  Empty benches in placid gardens beckoned us where we sat, quietly letting the sounds and smells permeate the air.

  1. I will be going to Paris in a week and Versailles is on my list of places to visit.
    Your photos are lovely. I can't wait to experience it for myself.
