So, a German, Slovak, Chinese, and an American go on a road trip in France...

This trip was exhausting. We would usually wake up at 8:30 am, drive, visit, drive, visit, and we wouldn't get to our hostel until after 1 am. Anyways, we had a good trip and here are the places we visited:

Champagne region and Dom Perignon's resting place: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dom_P%C3%A9rignon_(person)

Cathedral in Reims: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notre-Dame_de_Reims

Palace at Versailles: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palace_of_Versailles

Battle of Normandy Museum in L'Havre: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%27Havre#Museums

We also went to a couple of chateaus and took some pictures.
