Versailles

On this tour are another varied bunch, including the young guy with the University of Waterloo T-shirt (now working in Hong Kong and in Paris for the week on business), a nice couple from America, travelling with their daughter, and a woman from Windsor (Ontario), whom I initially thought to also be American.

For the afternoon, there is a choice of activities, from visiting the Louvre or other museums, to simple shopping. No one else has seems to share my interests, so for me, it's a private 50-seat bus to Versailles, complete with guide and driver.
