We started off the day with a bus tour, it took us all around the city of Paris, everything from the eiffel tower to statues of napolean to the louvre. At the end of the tour we were dropped off at the louvre and walked around inside the museum for a few hours. We saw the mona lisa painting along with some egyptian artifacts and roman sculptures.
After the louvre, we went on a boat tour down on the river by the eiffel tower. From the river we could see Notre-Dame, the old prison that marie antoinette was executed in and some other monuments.
Then we went up to the top of the eiffel tower; it was the most amazing thing i've ever done! Once we were halfway up I really couldn't imagine being any higher up..but i'm so glad we went to the top.
After finally coming back down to the bottom, we ate some crepes and watched the tower sparkle some more, I love watching it sparkle!
Tomorrow we want to go to Mass at Notre-Dame and then watch the Tour de France come through around 5 pm. Should be a nice relaxing last day, then back to the states on Monday!
