Here's a preview of the text for the writing challenge, when you're ready click the start button above:

- According to our schedule, we'll go and visit the Palace of Versailles on the day (when) we arrive from Toulouse. That means that we'll have our suitcases with us. Do you know if there's a left luggage service at the Palace ? - They don't have a left luggage service, but free lockers are available in the North Ministers' Wing. You can leave prohibited items there, like knives, and also bags and suitcases that are smaller than a cabin-size [US: carry-on] piece of luggage. - Oh, so we can't bring our big suitcases ? - No, I'm sorry, but larger bags are not allowed on the premises because they could be dangerous. But you should look online and you will find other luggage storage services nearby.

I'll be right with you...
