Hey all!
I've done it again--I keep taking pictures of stuff and then uploading them here and it makes the page insanely slow. Sorry. At least once they're archived the page won't take so long.
Anyway, these are pictures from my few days in Paris before coming to Morocco. Enjoy!
The Eiffel Tower, obviously. We didn't get to go up in it because the ticket line was probably a half-mile long. No joke.
And again. It's way too fun to take pictures of this thing. I could bounce around the plaza and up and down the tower all day and still not get every angle I wanted.
View of the arch at La Defense (I forget what it's called).
Eiffel Tower again, after I figured out how long to make the exposure. We still didn't get to go up in the tower since the lines were even longer after dark.
I tried to take these two pictures from approximately the same angles as the first two so people could clearly see the difference between night and day. Don't know if it worked, though.
And finally, Notre Dame from across the Seine. I couldn't get closer without being an awkwardly pushy American since this is apparently tourist season and there were tons of people everywhere.
Hopefully I'll find some time to post again next week. Classes are starting to get a little hectic, probably because I have four out of five of them on Tuesdays and Thursdays. At least I have nice Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
Until next time...

Guy de Maupassant would eat lunch in the Eiffel Tower every day so he didn't have to look at it. It is evident that you disagree with his taste in architecture.
