Saturday afternoon our train back from Versailles went right past the Eiffel Tower so we hopped off to see it. I couldn't go to Paris and not have seen the Eiffel Tower! Of course once we got there Martin decided that we needed to climb it - to the second level which is 720 steps. My calves are still sore from it. And I work out!
I think this is at the halfway point of the climb. Nice and sweaty:
The building where Napoleon is buried:
Sacre Coeur:
We made it to the top!
After the Eiffel Tower we did some walking, some shopping, and then some more walking, then we had to refuel at a cafe with some booze (below) before heading to dinner at this great little Moroccan place a short walk from Conrad's apartment.
And that was the end of Saturday. Phew.
