Quiet day

We know it's our last day in Paris but we can't seem to get motivated. We said good-bye to Ellen and the B's and slept in. Late breakfast and we walked around a bit. Took the metro to the Eiffel Tower and Nic and Patrick stood in line to go to the top. Once again we ate baguettes in line. I sat writing while I waited for them. It was cooler and looked as if it was about to rain. 45 minutes later they came back-the top was closed due to weather. Nic was bummed. C'est la vie, we said. Back on the metro to our hotel for a nap, at least for me.
Out to dinner by ourselves at a Tex-Mex American restaurant called Indiana. It starts pouring. Great meal except for Patrick's chicken -he ordered fried chicken and basically got pricey chicken nuggets.
We were tired and went home to pack.
Back to London tomorrow.

Too bad you didn't get to the top. But the view from the bottom isn't so bad either. The Eiffel Tower is an amazing creation.

And doesn't a baguette in Paris taste different than baguette anywhere else in the world?! ...so Parisian... :)
