Decided to forsake sleep this evening to visit the Eiffel Tower with my buddies. The walk over to their apartment was a good 45 minutes or more but I weaved near Notre Dame, the Municipal House of Paris, and a few other beautiful bridges and walkways to make the trip incredible. I took a few pictures of the scenery (which are posted on facebook). We got to the Eiffel Tower right at 10pm when they light up the flickering strobe lights from top to bottom which was magical to say the least. After a few photos and stares, we ventured beyond the tower's square and ate at a decently priced yet yummy cafe. I played it safe tonight and ate roasted chicken and a glass of Sauvignon blanc. Tomorrow, I will expand my horizons and shop at a authentic French market for fresh food to cook!!
I used to have a tainted view of Paris as being haughty and arrogant but this is simply the most romantic and beautifully constructed city I have ever seen. Everything seems classic and even the people have been nice up til now. Hopefully this trend keeps up!
