Versailles. And it is sweet - been there twice. Let us know if the renovation is done yet. Last time I was there the hall of mirrors was under renovation and it kind of takes away some of the excitement. Really cool place, though. Since it's summer, be sure to get your ass up early and go since the line gets stupid long shortly after they open.

I went there and the beer is so much stronger and one of the girls with us didnt realize and managed to puke her brains out in front of the gift shop. good times. Munich is fun.

and I'm not positive but isn't it Versaille?

I disagree... have you ever been? the inside of the castle is quite amazing the art work is nice. The grandeur of it inside is amazing but the most impressive thing about versaille is the gardens. 2000 fountains and the size of the garden is unbaleivable. man made lakes that the king used to put some of its boat on. The mirror in the mirror hall considering that mirrors was a very expensive luxury back then. The the opera house is splendid all made of wood with a retracting floor.
to date on this trip i have been to Paris, munich, budapest and Versaille is the most impressive thing i have seen. Even addingall teh otehr places i have visited Versaille is way up there. If anyone goes to Paris they need to put 1 day aside and visite this place.
Tomorrow off to vienna :yay:

Vienna is fun. Nice views, nice places, nice outings.

Are you going to Salzburg, Innsbruck, or Graz?
