Versailles - Parisian Suburb II

Aside from the amazingly decadent Chateau de Versailles, the suburban area was just lovely!
The Notre Dame bell was ringing across the town to let everyone know the mass is about to start and people were carrying couple of freshley baked baguettes in their arms to start off their breakfast. My family and I were strolling around town looking at the real estate listings, scoring some french pastries from the patisserie and sitting at the patio of a cafe drinking espressos.
It was such a perfect Sunday Afternoon!



Despite during the Revolution when people sold all the stuff in the palace, Versailles has such a amazing collection of furniture that is easily transferrable to our modern homes! 
I would study so hard if this were my study room!
I just love the detail and the colour scheme of the stucco (?) or moulding of the wall and the window.
I would feel like such a Dauphine if I slept in a bed topped with feathers and chandelier~
Amazing tapestry behind me with the royal fleur-de-lys symbol.
