Bonjour !
Today spent the whole day at the Eiffel tower ! it was freezing though...
we climbed up till the second level...dint take the lift ! :D it was harder than it looks....that too the air was so cold my nose hurt....and the wind was so strong..
when i first saw it..first thought was..hmm..it looks a little rusty....but then you look at the architecture, teh story behind it and the very size and then you get caught up with the idea that you are standing in front of one of the most famous monuments in the world !
we climbed up huffing and puffing and sat at the first level for a bit..then dragged ourselves up to the second level...
the view was fabulous !we could see all teh main sights in paris from up there....and the city is so large....and so well organized..
went straight to the cafe and had some nice hot coffee with chocolate waffles...feeling a whole lot better we just stared at the city from up there....and browsed the souvenir shops ....and waited for it to get dark :) at 5 it got dark and the lights all around the city came up and slowly so did the ones on the tower....oh so pretty it was...
we oohed and aahed...and then descended by the lift ...then as we were walking away from teh tower....in a building in front of us we could see a lott of sparkling lights and we said oh what is that place..its all lit up...then we just look back and the whole tower is sparkling ! i cant describe it....its a sight of a lifetime...
the building was just reflecting it....
we just stood and looked it for a long time...then walked to the arc de triomphe and the Champs Elysee...:D oh my....
all top brands....Louis Vuitton ,Gucci, Prada, Rado the Mercedes and Toyota showroom...Hagen Dasz....:D and teh whole road was lit up ! i went into the Toyota and Mercedes showrooms...
saw the Latest Hybrid and even a toyota concept car ! :D saw a Rolls Roys passing by even.....sexy street...
Outside of Louis Vuitton there is a line....people waiting to go inside and spend 1000's of Euro s...:D and saw watches worth 22-23 Lacs...yes thts like 35000 Euros....and yes..on a watch !
then Shwetank joined us...it was 7 by then and his office is on the champs elysee....all day Priya and me were roaming..
we 3 had dinner on some Italian Restaurant there only....quite nice it was....
then thats it..today over...
tomoro not sure what the plan is...but we ll see all thats left over....maybe i ll go back to teh eiffel tower..to see it sparkle again...:).
gnite....
lots of love
Aishu
