I was not disappointed. We spent half a day at the Palace of Versaille just outside of Paris. We saw where Marie Antoinette lived and where Napoleon's coronation room was. We saw part of the Hall of Mirrors (half of it was boarded up for renovations). We saw where the King held court and where he slept and ate. We decided to skip the King's Apartments since the line for tickets was about 200 ft long.
Then we went to the gardens. Oh my! It's gianormous! John had the best idea of the day...we rented a golf cart for the tour of the gardens. Does my husband know me or what? We stayed for part of the fountain show - truly amazing. In its heyday, there were 1100 fountains and basins. Now there are about 300 originals remaining.
