France Day 2: Versailles, Chinatown (First Attempt)

A few observations: I love how the sun doesn't set until 10 pm. And I hate how the trains and trams, etc. lack decent fresh air. It feels like there isn't any ventilation at all! There are several small windows though, but they're definitely inadequate. Finally, I like how fresh orange juice is a big deal here.

Today, we went to the Versailles chateaux and garden. We decided to rent bikes to explore the grounds faster, and it was probably the best decision of this trip so far.

On the way back, we went east to scout out the Parisian Chinatown without much success, missing the actual center streets by a couple of blocks. We will have to try again some time.

After some veal for dinner yesterday in Paris, I had some duck for lunch today in Versailles. I wonder what I should order (or accidentally order) tomorrow. A non-standard meat dish seems to be a trend so far. Let's see if I can keep it up. Fish in Bordeaux tomorrow, perhaps.

We need to wake up ridiculously early tomorrow to catch the TGV to Bordeaux! In retrospect, it might've been a little too early...

Finally, we did some groceries shopping and local food exploring in our local area. Baguette count is now up to 2.
