      @@peterwhite9261 thank you, I much preferred this place - also fewer tourists as it is very far to walk from the palace. In fact I walked 30 kms that day 😩

    With all that beautiful furniture and priceless object d'art, I can't imagine they had cats like mine for pets. 😉

    As always both a visual and auditory treat. Leon you possess artistic genius. However we have seen that before with your other offerings and your gorgeous house. Versailles is so very beautifully maintained, I wonder how many gardeners there are. Buckingham Palaces is, of course, much smaller and they have ten gardeners. I advise your other followers to watch your vlogs twice as it is easy to miss something the first time round. Alternatively, play again with closed eyes and listen to the music. Well, until the next LEONSDAY . . . . . . . .

      In Louis XIV's time 7,000 people worked in the gardens but these days there are only 48 permanent gardeners!
      The Trianon estate was an absolute treat - so few tourists 👏
      Enjoy a wonderful weekend dear Pamela 🤗🌟🤗

      @@janeingram7331 thank you 🤗 I think it can be done today - if you look at the reconstruction of the Notre Dame it's amazingly close to materials and techniques used.

      @@RuralFranceJournals Yes, I heard that today. They said Notre Dame may look new but it was rebuilt exactly as it was originally. I think they were able to accomplish that because of the generosity of donors.

    Definitely not Versailles but more to my liking. Versailles is quite overdoing it compared to this homey palace. I loved it all, though, right down to the last petal on the beautiful gardens. Thank you.
