Versailles

So- today we went to Versailles to go to the palace (of Versailles). It was suuupper pretty. BUT the day started with Martine dropping us off for about an hour or 2 because she went to go see her dad and then came back to do the palace gardens with us. This all around noon. So Katie and I went to the bank and then wandered around this foreign country looking for FOOD. We passed several little eating area that we couldn't understand the menu of and while walking past one of the many- a man BONJOURed us. Oh no. So.. somehow he communicated with us that we could eat on the terrace and pointed so we just went over there. On the way (since the only French I can manage thus far is "I don't understand") he asked me "English?" and I said... "Si! uhhhh OUI!" then Katie and I just about lost it. Sooo then we go about pointed to what we want to eat (which isn't really what we'd WANT if we would read it, but we pointed to what we knew wasn't poison.) Later in the meal we realized our new waiter spoke some English because he said something about my tattoo. "Love? Love who? Love me? Love you?" which I responded to with "LOVE YOU!" to the French man who brought me food. We laughed for that a little then later when he came back to pick up plates he said "I love you.." while he was walking off..
So that was our funny brunch basically.
I now have a French lover.

Speaking of LOVERS- The gardens at the Palace of Versailles should be something you do with a lover. Not you can't do them pleasantly loverless, but I bet they're great with a lover.
