Versailles – or queuing part une

Having queued for at least an hour and a half for tickets to get into the palace and gardens we enter the palace to a hall way almost as impressive as the one at Sky Farm in India.

Having had an ice-cream and walked even further Jess sits on Marie Antoinette's rock in her garden to rest before the long walk back. No queues though thankfully.
