 First time at the Eiffel tower
by:

Last month, I visited Paris for 5 days with my boyfriend Van. We chose to take a train instead of flying because we haden't been travelling by train abroad. We had a great time on the train while travelling to Paris.

When we got to Paris it was too early to check in to our hotel. So we made our way to the Eiffel tower before checking in even though going up the tower was on the 4th day of our schedule.

The weather was incredible and we decided to hang around by the tower. We both loved lying down in the park by the Eiffle tower. While we were lying down we could see the people who were going up and down the tower.

With my binoculars I could see them clearly. Some were taking the stairs and some were in the lifts. We took so many nice pictures with the the Eiffle tower in the background.

Van got an interesting picture which looks like he was hugging the tower. We also managed to enjoy our delicious packed lunch when we were sitting in the park.

By the time we had had our lunch, it was time to check in. So we reluctantly left to continue to our hotel by metro.

That was the very first experience yet unforgettable.
