Louis XIV doesn't fuck around

Versailles Trianon. Not the worst hotel I've ever stayed in.
-- Slavin:
Leaving the hotel for the first time in 3 days (Fremantle = pretty insular, and Versailles supports that nicely)

Versailles: Dubai starts to make sense (and it rhymes!)
-- Slavin:
Outside Versailles there are no images of any men at all. Here, inside the helmet it's only a fascis, which is a pretty crazy image

Koons in Versailles: it's too fucking good.

I'm not the guy who is always photographing his meals but goddamn Marine cooked up a storm. That thing on the right is made out of chestnuts, and it was delicious.

At the Louvre, wondering when everyone will forget about the things We Will Never Forget
