Paris - gardens of delight! I really liked that the gardeners took chances and used exotic plants and combinations that were thrilling. I do like classical design so I was in my element. In one garden there was huge fountain and surrounding pond and children could rent antique sailboats and sticks to guide the sailboats on the little pond. They were totally entranced. It was fun that there were real live ducks and seagulls in the pond too just to mix it up. There were really old trees donated by Thomas Jefferson still flourishing. The chestnut trees have some kind of blight and many will have to be cut down and replaced.
