Ticking off my bucket list
I recently looked back at my bucket list and realised I could tick off quite a few things! What a great feeling! I am achieving the things that I one day decided I wanted to do. It just goes to show that:
‘Anything’s possible, if you’ve got enough nerve’ – J.K. Rowling
I wanted to share one of the highlights- driving a golf buggy! This might be a strange ambition to have, but I have always loved the idea of whizzing around in one of these vehicles and one day owning my own. I think it comes from the child-like idea of transporting yourself round in a stop/go manner, almost like a toy. I drove us around in the buggy in one of the most picturesque locations possible, the gardens of the Palace of Versailles! It was definitely not cheap, but in the heat of the day it was the best way to get around and see as many of the acres of beautiful landscaped gardens and outbuildings as possible.
Taking the wheel!
Biggest crowd to get in I have ever seen! I had prebooked tickets so we could queue jump.
The heat of the day!
Versailles Palace is free to visit for EU citizens under 25. The gardens cost extra but I have also been in low season and got in for free.
Who knows, maybe one day I will be driving a gold buggy of my own (even though I can’t see myself playing golf or wanting grounds big enough to warrant one)!
The hot weather in Paris continues and the sweat is real.
I’ll check back in soon with some more life updates!
