Tres Magnifique!I headed over to the Tour Eiffel late this afternoon, right at sunset and was thrilled to find a fairly short line, so up I went! It's been a few years since I've been up to the top at night. I forgot just how beautiful it is to see the city as dusk turns into night and all the monuments start to light up!
No matter how many times I see the "light show" that happens every hour when the tower twinkles for 10 minutes, I'm still mesmerized. When the Tour Eiffel isn't twinkling, it's shaded in blue with a huge illuminated EU symbol on the front, which is very cool. This is to mark the fact that France currently has the rotating reigns of the European Union.
Lots of great photos to share... again though, I have to say "coming soon." But I do have a special treat right to make up for it. How about some video?!?! Enjoy.....
