The Eiffel Tower in all its glory. And here is a picture of us jumping in front of it.
What could possibly be better than a good old jumping picture? Oh, I know, a picture of what comes after...
Thank heavens for fast shutter speeds or this beauty may have gone forever undocumented. T'would have been a shame. Sometimes I wonder what dances were like in the 60's—I don't have to wonder anymore.
The Louvre was beautiful, and the Musée d'Orsay was ammmmazing.
Arc de Triomphe, where we caught a fancy meal at a McDonalds down the street. They have these fantastic little potatoes slices they call “French fries”, gotta try them.
Probably the most impressive thing still was the Metro. I have never, I repeat never been on such a crowded subway/train/light rail. A huge festival was going on and it was a mad house. I believe at one point a stranger was sitting on my lap, someone was stepping on my foot (or was it I that was doing the stepping? It's hard to say), and someone else was breathing on my neck. If you are wondering, I didn't turn around—sometimes it's just better to not know.
If you were wondering, we blended right in. I am sure no one knew we were tourists at all...
