Meocha Belle 6/23
Today myself, Gabrielle and Alana decided to go to Versailles after class. We wanted a change of scenery to get our reading done, so we went to Versailles. The train we took there rode us for about two hours. We did not expect the traveling time to be so long, but we just relaxed and took a nap. The ride ended up being very refreshing and scenic, it also gave us time to get through much of the reading.
Once we arrived in Versailles, we had to take a bus to the garden. While on the bus, we befriended an American-born, bus driver from New York and discussed opportunities in France versus those within America. He believed, a white man in his forty's, America just sells its people a dream. France however, in his opinion, had much better governance, benefits, access, education and culture than America.
