Day 2!

Day 2: after sleeping 11 hours, I wake up after 8 and make it downstairs at 9. Send some emails, and then check out the directions for Versailles. As I'm looking, a girl next to me asks if I'm heading there. I say yes, and so is she! So we teamed up and spent the entire day there. The place is absolutely insane! Even while standing in the place, I couldn't grasp how big it was, or the lifestyle these people had.

We could have rented bikes there to ride around the gardens, but we learned that too late in the day, as we were hurrying to see Marie Antoinette's private hangout she had built because she wanted to get away from Versailles Chalet. Then we booked it out of there and hopped on one of the last trains of the day.

Lunch today was amazing. We had to leave the Palace area to find a cheap place, and we found a great little sandwich place! We got the most amazing sandwich of goat cheese, lettuce, tomato, bacon, and some good sauce. The goat cheese was the best ever. All for like 4€, which is a good deal around here.

On our way back to the hostel, we stopped at a bakery on the corner and got these really extravagant pastries. They were cake, and custard, and strawberries. Those were decently cheap too, and sooooo good. I'm going back tomorrow.

OK, I'm going to figure out how to get a train ticket! Grenoble on Friday!
