Last night

What a way to end the trip, spending my last evening having a picnic and enjoying a spectacular fountains and fireworks show at the chateau Versailles gardens.

Au revoir Paris!

The magnificent Chateau Versailles

Le Reminet

Delicious three course lunch at Le Reminet.

Salad with fried cheese crepe. Sea bass on a bed of carrots, turnip and zucchini. Rich chocolate cake for dessert. Yes, it had to be eaten with a spoon.

Invalides

Napoleon Bonaparte's oversized sarcophagus is located under the big golden dome.

In the same compound is the military museum which has a rich collection of swords, armor, guns, military uniforms, and related artifacts.
