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!!!
