This Wednesday’s Wonder: Future escargot in the gardens of Versailles.
The Palace of Versailles was home to multiple monarchs throughout French history, including Louis XVI and Napoleon. Now, it is a castle steeped in history with a beautifully manicured garden.
Garden variety slugs and snails are easy to spot in the garden after a light rain, like this little dude.
When I was young, I poured an entire bottle of bubbles on a snail in earnest hopes that he would float away and travel from the only place he could call home (I was 5, people, I also believed in Santa Claus). The result was a heeping mess of green froth and dead snail. His adventure didn’t quite pan out like my 5-year-old mind had planned.
But is it wrong that I want to poke this lil’ dude in the eye? He keeps looking right at us…
Snail in Versailles, looks good enough to eat.
Our next adventure is faster than a snail in a garden. Get it hot off the presses via email! Go nuts!
