Eiffel Tower


 So, all the girl's wanted from our trip was a picture of the Eiffel Tower.  So, Mike and I spend some time trying to get the perfect picture for the girl's to hang in their room.  The Tower is huge and so pretty.  It was interesting to learn that when it was built the people of Paris didn't like it.  They felt it served no purpose.  So, they then told the people that it could be a radio tower and people then liked it because it had a purpose.  Now though it's the symbol of Paris and serves a great purpose for tourism!

 I have to say that the tower is most pretty at night.  It's lit up and then on every hour it sparkles and shimmers and everyone cheers.  It's very romantic!
 Young groups of people gather on the grass by the Eiffel Tower and just drink and get drunk.  I thought this was happening because it was the weekend but, every night there was a party on the grass.
 I love Paris at night!  Paris sits right on the Seine River and it's a really pretty laid out city.
Selfie!!  

Here is a day shot of us with the Tower.  There was always something interesting going on around the Tower and lots of fun people watching!
