Today we actually climbed (well, in the lift) the Eiffel Tower (we were rained out yesterday). Here are some of the views from the top… The trees in the front are the Tuilleries and along the river to the right is the Lourve - you can just make out the glass pyramid made famous in the Divinci Code. Notre Dame...
And a couple of hundred small, spiral stairs later - the view from the top ... The small point on the hill, surrounded by green is Sacre Cour. The bell... I was so relieved to be finally down the bottom of Notre Dame that I took a picture of the first thing I saw... The back of Notre Dame... Sunset at Sacre Cour...
The Eiffle Tower, of course, from the walk between Sacre Cour and Montmarte (I had to climb someone's fence to get the shot!)...
I know there are a few first-time blog readers following my travels at the moment so hopefully these hints will help you get around. The entries are listed with the most recent at the top. You can scroll down to see past entries. If you are looking for entries on a particular topic, you can use the links on the right hand side (below this text), under the heading "Search by Topic". Just click on the topic you want to read and all the entries will be shown. Sometimes, I say that more information can be found here. Click your mouse on the word "here" and that should take you to another web page which contains the information. There is a map of my travels - select "Itinerary" from the "Search by Topic". Just under the heading is a link - click on this and it will take you to a trip advisor link. You can then zoom in and move around the map. Hope this helps, if you have any more questions just send me an email at the usual address and I will try to help. Love Chel
When I started this blog, I had been married 10 years and the dog was 4. The dog is now 8 and lives with his grandparents, and we now live interstate.
I'm happily married, we have been together for 18 years.
I have 2 favorite things to do, spend time with people I love and to travel.
My family is large and crazy but in small doses and from a distance, they are wonderful (joking, well kind of).
My friends are essential to my being, I am blessed to have many.
Travelling is my passion and I will use any excuse. When travel and friends come together, well, that is perfection.
I can't promise to blog regularly but thanks for popping in.
Be safe, be well and be happy. xx
