Stalking the Eiffel Tower…

After our long day at Versailles, we took my mom out to dinner, and then strolled over to the Eiffel Tower. We were thinking that we might go up and enjoy the view from on high…

There I am… well, me and my absurdly mismatched nostrils…

We managed to arrive just as the first hourly light show was beginning.

Okay, that picture is actually left over from my trip to the military museum, but I figured I would sneak it in here anyway.

My wife must have taken that picture of Mollie and I walking with my mom.

On our first night in Paris, we had seen the tower in the distance, and now we were going in for the kill…

You don’t really get a sense of the size of the tower until you get really close to it.

But, in the end, we decided that the lines were too long, the sunset would be over by the time we got through them, and that we were all exhausted from walking around the king’s big house… so we decided to get up early and go up the tower first thing in the morning.

The next day was to be our last day in Paris, and it turned out to be one crazy-long day and we saw some awesome stuff, so I hope to see you here later.
