We went to Versailles today...palace was whatever, but then we rented bikes and cruised around the grounds, totally getting lost on little dirt paths through rows of beautiful trees...was one of the coolest bike rides ever. Lots of pix below, many of rows of trees, but there was a lot of that, and it was cool...


Metro in Paris in the morning, on our way to catch the train to Versailles...


Graffiti on a mirror in the Hall of Mirrors (where the Treaty of Versailles was signed), nice...


Cool ceiling in the palace at Versailles...

Gardens just outside the palace...


Spring blossoms...must be all the impressionists I saw yesterday at the Musee D'Orsay, but I went for the f3.5 thing here...

Fountains and some sort of collonade...


Row of trees, in case you couldn't make that out for yourself...


Cool blooming willow tree...


Andrea cruising...all the pix of Andrea riding I took from my bike while riding, good thing my camera is easy to use...


Pulling off a pathway to snoop around...most of the tourists (and there were BAJILLIONS of them) stick to the palace, so when you get out to the grounds there's no one around. Most of the time we were aaallllll alone to wander through the paths.


Landscape (I believe the French word is Paysage...I'm so fancy)


Paysage #deux...


Two of many paths to choose from during our velo jaunt...


And again...


Train on the way home...RER, its like the Metro North for Paris...
