Today was our last day in Paris. The main objective was to see the Eiffel Tower. The whole reason for heading to Paris was because Sage wanted to see it. We navigated the metro and then walked to get in line-we got there fairly early. Then we walk to the Arc de Triomphe and the up and down the Champs Elysees. The energy level after traveling 3 weeks was not as high as it had been in the begin-at least I know my back was really hurting after walking (and keeping up with the others). At least it was a nice day and you could see far from the very top of the tower.

Not as far above ground as Clay

We stopped on the 2nd floor and walked around before walking down more steps

We walked around Champs Elysees. The Abercrombie store was interesting as it had a gate with and pretty path leading to the back of the building (which is the entrance). In the gateway and doorway they had half dressed boys/men posing and dancing. We stopped for lunch on the Champs Elysees at an expensive Italian/pizza place.

We walked the stairs to the Sacre Coeur, then walked through the inside.

The Paris grocery store-3 blocks east of the hotel. We walked down there every day for groceries.
