Paris - Eiffel Tower

Last day in Paris, and there was still one thing we hadn't done: go up the Eiffel Tower. Unfortunately the weather didn't exactly hold out for us (we had decided to spend the nice days doing outside stuff like Notre Dame and Versailles, and the Louvre was closed today) but that did mean very short lines.
We waited until evening to go, so we'd get the daytime and nighttime views (and let the weather improve a bit).

It was pretty spectacular (when we could see through the clouds)! It was also mildly concerning to see the rust patches peeking through the paint (#3)! =/
In #5 you can make out the Arc de Triomphe.

Afterwards, we went to a popular French-cuisine place (Le Bouillon Chartier) that was super packed - likely due to being one of the few affordable French-cuisine places. No English menus so I ended up with a tomato salad (ie. sliced tomato) and a very chewy rump steak. Afterwards I kinda wished I was more adventurous - everyone at the next table had escargot!Baca lagi
