5 Highlights:
1. Roland Garros
2. Flight to and from USA
3. Rome: our hotel, the long bus and metro trips between it and the city center
4. Seeing Roger in Florence
5. Venice: our hotel and the city
5 Lowlights:
1. Versailles: the entrance line, the music/water show, that we didn't see the Grand Trianon
2. The overnight train from Venice to Paris
3. The mistakes I made between Fondamenta Nove and the hotel in Venice
4. Perceived French snootiness
5. Lunch and dinner on the day we visited the Vatican
Here are some photos from Versailles.
