Balloon Dog at Versailles

Today, we braved the metro and after some initial confusion, we made it from Paris to Versailles. After we suffered through the hour long ticket line, we walked up to the entrance and there it was, a huge Jeff Koons piece! I recognized it immediately, and to my very pleasant surprise, his most famous works were on exhibit throughout the entire chateau (including Michael Jackson and Bubbles! If you haven't seen this, Google it!). It was surreal to see modern art mixed in amongst the overwhelming opulence of Louis XVI and Marie-Antoinette's digs. After Versailles, we came back to the city,took a recommendation from Rick Steves, and hit Rue Cler. The pedestrian street is full of produce stands, cafes, wine, and cheese shops. We had an amazing meal and picked up some fresh bread and cheese for back at the George V. It was a perfect last day in France!
