As of today I have 12 days left until I head home. Most people would begin to reflect, begin to wind down and prepare for the journey home. I'm taking the other approach. I suppose you could say I've gotten a second wind to continue experiencing as much of Paris as possible before January 20th.
Today’s trip: Chateau de Fontainebleu.
Most people think of Palais Versailles when you think Paris Chateaux not Fontainebleu. I suppose that’s why it took us so long to visit but I’m glad we did! I liked the Chateau better than Versailles. Perhaps because it was so cold, we basically had the Chateau to ourselves. Room after room, we saw tidbits of history dating as far back as Louis 7. I wish we had time to explore Fontainbleu more. There’s even an architecture school (Écoles d’Art Américanes) that I bet would have been interesting to check out. My two cents? This is a must see, especially if they weather would permit you to explore the grounds and the town! If only we had been told sooner…
