Taylor's travels

Went up to the top of the Eiffel Tower last night, a little windy on one side but other than that great weather!

Here are all the photos from the tower!

Going up the elevator

On level 2! About to go to the top!

That's where I had sat with my feet in the previous post! That little blob of water straight ahead!

That's Notre Dams, really hard to see, it's straight in the picture and right in the middle of the photo. It's a higher building than all the rest! I hope you can see it!

Eiffel Tower is 324m, it showed countries from all over the world & their tallest buildings. (I accidentally deleted the Calgary one. But it was on there! The Calgary tower)

Very famous bridge in Paris. Or so all the people up there were saying

Just a casual run around the track beside the Eiffel Tower.

They had a few of these around the top and I had to take one of these pictures hahah

A tiny glass of normal champagne was $23. That was the lowest price out of all of them.

What it looks like around the top

Paris at night!

Cara left this morning so I was on my own again. A little excited because I got to explore Paris all on my own now!

My plan for the day was to metro to the Arc De Triomphe, and then walk to the Eiffel Tower, then kinda hang around the Eiffel Tower for the few hours then go up the tower & see the city at night! Only because when I saw the city of London up high I saw it both when it was day and night, and to me I loved seeing it at night way more than during the day!

So I headed out for the Arc De Triomphe, wow way bigger than I expected it to be! Really pretty and there's just a lot going on, it's surrounded by a busy round about so there were constantly vehicles going around it.

The Arc De Triomphe was built between 1806-1836, if you don't know what it is when you see the photos I'm sure you will recognize it! If not it's just a very popular monument in Paris!

Then headed on foot to the Eiffel Tower, I could see it from the Arc De Triomphe so it was easy to find. However my original plan of being out all day was slowly slipping away BECAUSE it was so hot here today! At 2pm it was +35, but with the humidity it felt like +38, and there was no wind! My fingers were even sweating!? How does that happen! And because I was walking the entire time it felt like double the heat!

So after I got to the effiel tower I took my pictures from far away and then decided to go back to the flat. Even though I knew I would be heading back in 2 hours to go up the Tower, 2 hours sitting outside in that heat I would have died I think.

I left later on for the Eiffle tower, line wasn't too long, from when I got in like to when I was finally at the top it wasn't even an hour! WOW! That's all that comes to mind when seeing the view from the top! Beyond beautiful!

Very happy I stayed to see it during the day and at night. You can see a lot from the top like Notre Dame, the Louvre, Sacre Coeur and so much more!

Because I had so many photos from during the day I am putting all the pictures I have from the Eiffle tower on tomorrow's blog! Cheers
