europe: versailles & more museums

day two in paris we headed out to versailles to check out the luxury of king louis the xiv - xvi and marie-antoinette. the palace and gardens did not disappoint. was all very over the top.
the gardens were so huge with some encouragement from jon we decided to see them via golf cart.
there were also lots of fun statues to imitate.
that afternoon we visited some additional sights in paris including some lovely flower shops,
napoleon's tomb (big tomb for little man),
rodin scuplture garden where we saw the thinker,
and the musee du lourve to see the mona lisa.
and of course, more eiffel tower.
