Seen one castle seen em all

Today will forever be known as castle over load day ,this is the day 2 fine young blokes were reduced to castle ash. Let me start at the start of this horrendous trip to the castle of all castles, yep we are going to Chateau de Versailles on the outskirts of Paris. First up its to the hole in the ground known as the Metro we have virtually lived in this dark and dingy place for 3 days as we climbed slithered and wandered around like lost Aussie tourists trying to negotiate our way through this labyrinth of tunnels. We have scaled many flights of stairs and walked many cross tunnels and survived, I have placed Cooper Clydesdale my grandson in charge of all further journeys to the underground world of travel. Now back to the castle of all castles which you can't even enter without joining the lineup which seems to have no end. Once inside if you view the gardens first it's back to the end of the line and start all over again trying to see where some old French king slept or had a feed. There were literally thousands of idiots like us all trying to do the same thing at the same time, never again . Still not a bad gig if you like castles,we will test our stamina on Eurodisney tomorrow. As the crew starts to  fail WADDA makes a decision to forage the night meal alone in the seedy district of Republique . With food alcohol and people watching high on my list of activities BINGO I hit the mother lode what a place to see it all. Nothing to worry about here as I stroll back to the Paris France Hotel 30 euros lighter , the 1664 beer is now my preferred taste. If you ever decide to come to Paris do not miss little adventure ...........WADDA
