This is definitely a trip of a life time for Bruce and I, it is something we always talked about, but never thought it would actually happen. We have the pleasure of exploring the beautiful city of Amsterdam for 3 days before leaving for Tanzania Africa for 13 days. We will be spending 1 day in Arusha before embarking on a 12 day private safari. After weaving our way across the Serengeti we will jet off to Paris the City of Romance for 4 lovely days before heading home.

The Eiffel Tower
On our last day in Paris it was clear enough that we could go to the top of the Eiffel Tower, For the last two days Paris had fog and you could not see the top of the tower.
The tower is 1063 feet tall, it is the height of a 81 storey building and has 1665 stairs to the top
The yellow compartments is the elevator that takes you to the top, They are connected together, they can load both compartments at the same time.
The view of the city from the summit of the tower. It was an amazing site.
Well tomorrow bright and early we fly out of Paris to Amsterdam and then on to Calgary, it is going to be a very long day. I must say we are not looking forward to the flight home. This has been the most amazing trip, it definately was a trip of a lifetime. Bruce and I have seen so much over the past three weeks. We cannot wait to share our travels with you all. I hope you have enjoyed our blog, It was great to be able to show you some of what we have seen. I hope some day some of you will be able to experience what we have, it was amazing!!!
