On Top of the World

Glenda got a wish granted tonight when we went to the top of the Eiffel Tower. She wanted to go at night so that we could see whether Paris really is the “City of Lights.” Boy, is she ever! On a clear, cold night at the top of the tower we felt as though we could touch that big moon over us. The city down below us was spectacular. We saw the Place de Concord two blocks from our hotel. The dome of the Army Hospital exuded a soft glow beneath us. We met some neat people from Arizona, New York, Ohio and the Netherlands. I gave Glenda a big kiss at the tippy top of the tower and asked, “How many guys have ever kissed you at the top of the Eiffel Tower?” She held up one finger and then she kissed me. It was a great night, and we’re looking forward to more fun tomorrow.Læs mere
