Monday, June 25 Eiffel Tower

When we were here last year, we figured out a great thing for the Eiffel Tower - get there at least a half hour before the ticket window opens. Since this year only one elevator is working, it was really important!!!



We were in about the 3rd elevator up and went to the top right away. After looking around, Ford decided to walk down from the 2nd level. We arranged to meet at the basketball court.

When I got there, he was already in a game. There were 3 French kids and as soon as he showed up, they invited him to play.






I decided to leave a little bit of Chuck there, too.



Back to Marie's for lunch and a little rest and then to the bateau Mouche.

Spotted a bride on the way






Went to Chartier for dinner. This is a very old "working man's" restaurant where the waiter writes your order on the paper table mat.






I ordered 6 snails and after trying one, Ford asked, "So we each get 2?". Yah, Ford.



Home to bed.
