The name Fontainebleau refers to the name from one of the springs, the fountain de Bliaud. Totally different atmosphere then Versailles, less touristic , you still feel the echoes of Napoleon while wandering through the halls of the Palace.

Versailles known as the palace of the Sun King and it was a sunny day indeed. Outstanding symmetry, cosy bedrooms, beautiful fountains.

The Darth Vader actor really liked his role. Scaring little children was his favorite part of the job. Even Pinky had a little scare when she was summoned to the photo room.

After a very very long 2 minute drive 🙂 we arrived in the country of our destination: France.
