A Versailles of Relief

August 4th, 2010 by Joel Leave a reply »

After yesterday’s rather maudlin journey to the world of hundreds of thousands of dead people, today’s going to be a light photo essay of Versaille. A truly beautiful palace “annex” – aka the royal weekend party house. Click on any pic to check out a bigger album on Picasa.

      Yeah, I barely captured any of it – the place is massive (but crawling with people who just wouldn’t get out of the way for me to get good photos ;) ).

      Beautiful place, though. And the gardens go on for miles.

      I can only imagine attending a party in the Hall of Mirrors – hopefully without a horse crashing through one of the mirrors from the future (sorry, geek reference).

  2. One of the best play-on word titles ever, Joel. I’m in awe.

    You are so lucky… when we were there it was so hazy and cold out that is was almost unbearable to be outside. it’s pretty beautiful though and so much bigger than I thought it was going to be. thanks for sharing!

    This is good inspiration for me to get my ass in gear to edit/post my photos of Paris from 10/09.
