Good to be the King

Sitting by the huge Neptune fountain. Even with the throngs of tourists here it's still really peaceful. The palace looms on the hill ahead while the rest of the gardens stretch out for miles to my left. The fish are jumping out of the water. They must be the great great great grand-fish of Louis the XIV's. It really must have been good to be the king - with fountains (and everything else) coming to life as you approach. Still, I guess I'd miss sushi and Lost in HD - though I guess the non-stop butt-kissing would be a nice substitute...
