First weekend in Paris and I decided to take a day trip to Chantilly ride outside of Paris. We explored the grounds of Chรขteau de Chantilly which is a historic French castle. Although it was a little rainy that day, it was still beautiful to see a European styled castle in person. I also got to try Chantilly cream which was really fluffy compared to the canned whipped cream back in the States. The trip itself was only a half hour train ride from one of the biggest stations in Paris. Highly recommend coming here for a less crowded historic site.
