I'm going to the top.


Eiffel Tower, originally uploaded by Campobello Island.

I've been buying tickets for museums, Paris Metro, London Tube and trains this week and this evening I bought a lift ticket to the top of the Eiffel Tower. The rest of these places could all take lessons from the Eiffel Tower with some there was free delivery with others I've paid as much as 14 Euros delivery charges. With the Eiffel Tower you pay for your ticket and print it yourself.

I'm going to the top of the tower at night to see the City of Light spread out before me. My friend Pru tells me that the tower twinkles for ten minutes on the hour each night, I've never seen that before either and hope to get a photo or video clip of it.

This photo was taken on a visit a few years ago.
