In fact, when I arrived in Paris there were still cobblestones missing from the recent student riots.
I lived outside Paris in a small town called Vaucresson, only a couple of train stops before Versailles.
Stayed several times with a fellow Australian school friend who lived in Versailles.
Walked those incredible gardens many times.

Sounds like a great experience! Also a good time to have been there - I imagine the country was less 'globalized' than it might be now. I've been to France a few times, but only for short visits. I went to Versailles on a school trip in 1977 and with my brother around 1983.
