Today we made it up to the top of the Eiffel Tower. We decided to do to stairs to the second level because the line was A LOT shorter. Plus we are young why not. They marked the steps for us. It was a total of 670 steps to the 2nd floor. Crazy I know! Our legs were tired but thought it wasn't too bad until later. It was beautiful from there but we needed to see more. So we decided to go to the top. This time we got to use the elevator. It was a little crowded up there but really cool.
From there we went to two museums. The Rodin where "The Thinker" statue was. Eric liked it but I wasn't blown away. Then we made it to the d'Orsay. UNBELIEVABLE!!!! This was an old train station converted to a museum. They had Monet, Manet and Van Gough. The building was amazing too.
After that we stopped at a cafe and enjoyed a sandwich and headed over to the Louvre. This place is huge. We didn't make it in yet because it was too late but we enjoyed the grounds. Very beautiful. From there we decided to take a break at the apartment. Good idea since we had a little down pour. Now we are enjoying the evening and the cool breeze.
That's all for now. Until the next blog.....
