Paris: Eiffel Tower from the Montparnasse

No trip to a city is complete without seeing the city at night, and Paris was no exception! The Eiffel Tower was beautiful at night. The lights came on before it became completely dark, so I was happy to see it lit up against the dusky sunset.

The moment the sparkly lights came on, there was this collective exclamation from everyone on deck. I didn’t know that the Eiffel had a sparkly light show once the sun went down so it was a nice surprise!

As you can see from this shot, the Eiffel Tower is quite a distance from the Montparnasse Tower. It is nice to see a sweeping view of the city, all seemingly connected in a network of lights.

It’s amazing how short lived and fragmented the memory can be. I remember being up there and I remember seeing the Eiffel Tower, but I don’t have a picture memory where I can remember all these colors and details. I’m so glad I was able to bring home this memory and share them with you. What is your favorite memory from your travels?
