Five Favorite Books Set at Christmas
Christmas scenes in any book always feel cozy, and it’s especially enjoyable to read them during the season when I’m craving that cozy feeling.
The Petit Trianon’s English and French Gardens at Versailles
This week I’m taking you on a little journey to some of the farthest corners of the nearly 2,000 acre estate of Versailles. If it’s your first visit, then of course you want to explore the palace and the gardens along the grand canal first, but if it’s your second visit or you have more time and good walking shoes, I highly recommend heading for the Trianon Estate, which consists of two smaller palaces, English and French gardens, and the Hamlet of Marie Antoinette complete with farm animals.
