Last Day

(Some photos to fall when Katie returns to Wales on Saturday. Not sure when I'll get other people's photos.)

Today we woke up extremely early and all got ready for our amazing trip to the Chateau of Versailles! Everyone was excited about going to Versailles because of all of the information we had previously learned in Miss Mac. and Mrs. Malone’s classes. We took the RER and got a little turned around but we figured it all out We arrived at the Palace and were slightly disappointed due to the extensive renovations taking place EVERYWHERE! We decided to skip the waiting in line and go on an audio tour in only one side of the building. We all loved what we were able to see of Versailles, but all good things come to an end and we ventured back to Paris to our apartment. We all did our separate things around the apartment and the neighborhood until several of us decided to go to the wonderful Rodin Museum. We saw the statue of the Thinker and the Gate of Hell, which were both totally awesome. We came home and went to the Vegetarian restaurant so Katie could see Riadh one last time  We had a delicious meal and came home to finish packing for our depressing voyage back to America which will take place tomorrow morning. Once we arrived back at the apartment we all started our frantic packing frenzy. We all were throwing things in bags finding all of our missing items and praying to heaven above that no one went over 50 pounds. After that chaos was over we all settled down for our last night in Paris, France. We all had a FANTASTIC trip!
