Eiffel Tower

Instead of heading out to Versaille today we decided to do the Eiffel Tower and cruise on the Seine River.

More photos on our walk.

 

 


Sometimes it just pays to get a cab. No, not Gab and l, we walked, and walked all the way there.
But we did go to the Champs Elysees, doesn't look far in the photo, but it was all up hill. Normally it would be me complaining about how far it was, but today it was Gab.

Then we walked more, and more.

Are we there yet. Still doesn't look that far.

Finally.

Poor Gab is holding onto a pole as the traffic is busy and we're on a centre median strip.

Off on our continued journey to find the Eiffel Tower.

 

Did we go up, no. Happy to look from below, but it was quite impressive, l thought it may have been smaller.

After walking all that way, we jumped on a ferry and did a 1 hr cruise on the Seine. Worst part of that, was we still had to get back to our apartment.

Another long walk, about 6 klm. The best part is we got to see more of the back streets thanks to google maps. Just added more klms to our already long walk.

We did stop for coffee and some pattiseries.

Finally made it back to our apartment after walking a total of 20+ klms for the day.

Now when you' re  in the city of romance, you would think that you may get lucky. But after a long walk, it would probably be hard to get up. Did l miss 'it' in the last sentence.
