Paris


Our first night in Paris.  We had a picnic in the Champ Du Mars Park next to the Tower.




We went out to Versaille to King Louis XIV's Chateau.. This is the famous Hall of Mirrors in the palace
 
This is the side of his "house"

Okay, so ignore me, but look at this King's "backyard"  We decided it stretched on for atleast 3 miles.  You can rent golf carts and bikes to use while you explore this place.  It is HUGE! 

The Catholic Church claims they have a piece of the crown of thorns and a peice of a cross...just like they have peters remains at the bottom of the basillica...I guess i'm a doubting thomas...


...No rest for the wicked...

On our way to the Louvre

ha ha, he's so ashamed...someone even put a wine bottle in his hand.

The largest painting in europe or the world, can't remember but either way it's HUGE!

the Blue Boar, do my fellow heber/midway peeps recognize it?
