| Paris Day Four Tuesday Three |
| On the way back from Versailles, we stopped at the Eiffel Tower. It couldn't have been a better time to stop. We had about an hour of sunlight left to get some ground photos and stand in line for the ride to the top...and from the top, the City of Lights really comes alive. |
| There was a nice park next to the Eiffel Tower. We relaxed there before the hour long line for the elevators. |
| A view from the top. Not that easy to see, but we're facing the Lourve and Invalides. |
| After the quick ride down, we took a walk up the Seine with the Eiffel Tower to our backs. |
| After a full day of touring - Versailles and the Eiffel Tower - it was past time for some dinner and a brew. |
| The fading sunlight gave a great backdrop to the scene. |
| On the other end of our view was the Arc de Triomphe. |
| The sweeping spotlights at the top gave you the best lighting for night photos. |
| I wholeheartedly agreed! |
| Tuesday was by far our busiest day in Paris. I can't stress how amazed we were with Versailles. Arguably the best thing we did on the whole trip was our stay at Versailles. The waiting in line was long, but even then we had a great time. Then to follow that with a trip to the top of the Eiffel Tower? Wow. That dinner we had just down the block from our hotel was throughly enjoyed. Afterwards we had a few nightcaps at our favorite Paris bar, Cafe Oz. We weren't even half way through the week... |
