The next morning started off rough…this was the beginning of my roommate problems! From this point on Diana and I were butting heads about every little thing! She always jumps out of bed and starts getting ready right when the alarm goes off. Everyone that knows me, especially my best friend, knows that you don’t mess with me in the mornings…I need time to wake up. After we got ready, we grabbed some breakfast at McDonalds and headed to the train station to jump on a train to Chateau de Versailles! We arrived to find a huge line! Nasha compared it to the ones at Disney! We stood in line for an hour and a half. To pass the time Nasha and I played the alphabet game…I am pretty sure everyone around us thought we were crazy! But we were having fun! Once we finally got inside, our passports with our residence permit allowed us to get in for free! =) The place was beautiful and the Gardens were gorgeous! It was crazy how big the place was!
By the time we got out of there, we were starving! We found a little bakery place on our way back to the train station and grabbed a sandwich. After lunch we jumped on the train back to our hotel. We were supposed to go to Montmartre that day, but someone on the train had told us about their son getting pulled into a car and beaten up there the other night, so the others didn’t want to go anymore. Then Nasha wanted to take a nap, so Diana and I headed off to see the Pantheon and the Luxembourg Gardens! The Pantheon was somewhat interesting, but not as nice at the Palace. After the pantheon, we stopped at a little souvenir shop where I got a few gifts for people back home. We found a little crepe place and I got an apple cinnamon crepe. The Gardens were beautiful, but then it started to rain so we headed back to the hotel.
We got there and then started arguing about where to eat dinner. Diana wanted to try some local French food at an expensive sit down place. First of all, I don’t know what she expected to try because I am pretty sure she wasn’t interested in the snails or duck. Nasha and I just wanted something quick and cheap. Nasha suggested a compromise. We would have dinner at the fried chicken place we had been talking about and then we could go to a restaurant for some dessert and maybe wine. So we went to the chicken place and Diana was pissy the entire time. Then we went to this restaurant to eat dessert. I got a lemon tart; I had been wanting a tart ever since I got there! It was amazing! Diana got the chocolate mousse and Nasha got the chocolate Fondant! We all tried each other’s and they were all delicious! After dessert we headed back to the hotel for some sleep!
