Paris Eiffel Tower

Visiting the Eiffel Tower made for a very fun day! We took the train from Euro Disney and then Marc thought it would be fun to walk from the station. It was a little farther away then I hoped, but it was fun to see the neighborhoods and such :) Benjamin got more and more excited the closer we got... and Liam got more and more excited the more excited Benjamin got!
Just across the Seine river and we'll be there!
Almost there!
Our famous floating Benjamin shot!
And Liam's turn!
Time for a little fun, frolicking and flying in the park at the base of the tower.
Riding the elevator up.
Liam was ready for lunch, but we managed a little sightseeing by holding him off with a croissant :)
Daddy and Benjamin try out a view finder.
What beautiful views.
Grandpa and Grandma toast their visit!
At night the tower twinkles with thousands of lights every hour on the hour for about 5 minutes. We had dinner on the river at a docked boat where we could see the tower and enjoy the twinkling!

Grandpa told some awesome stories! He makes history fun and kid-friendly.
And it also helps to mellow this little guy out.
A big day made for some sleepy boys on the way back to our resort.
Benjamin was so cute with this camera! You can cycle through different pictures of Paris by pressing the button. He was so excited to see the pictures he was taking.
I said it before, I'll say it again... Paris totally lives up to the hype, so fun!
