The Eiffel Tower is a must see for any new tourists to France. Daisies Mom climbed it, but our Mom took the elevator. Seeing the younger breathe hard she’s glad she did. It’s a beautiful view on a good day. It’s made of Iron not steel. It was mined from east France and it’s a very sturdy structure. Mom would like to go back and see it again. Perhaps have a picnic nearby on the Champs de Mars. Thank you for sharing about it and its restaurants Freddy. It also used to have a post office and Daisies Mom used to take postcards to mail from there for their unique postmark.

Everyone please have a safe and happy week. Love to All 💛 Squeaky, BB and Mom ❤️

You wouldn't like to picnic on Champs de Mars nowadays; the place isn't safe with all the pickpockets around. Paris has changed tremendously. xx

I have many memories of travelling up to the top but I’ve only ever once walked up. Thank you very much 😻🥰💕
