Day Five: Off to Versailles

Another lazy day in Paris, breakfast/lunch at Le Danton. Some people from North Dakota sat next to us, the waitress spoke all English to them. Apparently we *look* like we might speak French, so there is always this exchange in mixed English and French. So far there has not been a major problem only having a vague idea of what food is coming. The North Dakota people weren't any better at predicting what food was going to arrive, so I think we will stick with trying French when possible.



I had a blanquette du veau, very tasty. Bonnie had the house club sandwich, from which she picked off the very good tomatoes.



Bonnie practicing her French look... Very mysterious!

After breakfast, we hopped on the Metro, popped over to the RER station, and got on a very nicely maintained train out to Versailles. A very pleasant half hour ride through the outskirts of Paris.

Speaking of shoes (aren't shoes always an appropriate topic?), we are wearing cute shoes today. As seen being shown off in the RER station...





The train is almost there, more to come!
