121 years that she's standing here in Paris, and she's still the same, she doesn't show signs of age !

Enjoy your French trip

xx

Flore

I agree completely! It's just enormous, isnt it? The Mona Lisa was disappointing, but never the Louvre!

(have to give a quick recommendaion - there's a great restaurant called L'entrecote in Paris - real steak frites!)

Lovely.

What a gorgeous picture, I'm so jealous ;) I have eiffel tower stuff all over my apartment. I can't wait to see it in person one day!

i felt the same way. glad it's been lovely for you, dear.

Lovely post! I'm glad it lived up to your expectations.

i remember when i went to paris, all i could think about was the french girl from the sex and the city finale who said that the eiffel tower was now "in-tol-er-able" in her french accent. i felt so silly because i got so excited every single time i saw it. i was just so happy to be in paris and it kinda just reminds you that you're there.

Oh Olivia! that is so awesome! i am so happy you got to see it! i hope to go there someday!!

have u gone up in it at night? its amazing.

I almost cried as well and then I did a handstand!!!! SWOOOON! Paris is more than a place it is a feeling and when you see the eiffel tower you feel it. Glad you are enjoying your trip!! XO

yes! so be beautiful tower ever.

i am so happy for you! and also quite jealous. oh, september cannot come soon enough (when i'm hopefully going to paris).

i felt the EXACT same way! got all teary and blissed out and then i couldnt stop pointing the tower out every time it popped up on the vista while we were in paris. i hope you get a chance to go to the top of the notre dame, the view is incredible!

*Sigh* It is, isn't it? Did you take a stroll in the park not far from where the tower stands? Anthony and I went in fall, and all the colors of the trees were simply beautiful!

aw yay!! i had a similar experience when i first set eyes on it. it was at night, and there it was all lit up when i turned a corner. it was one of the most magical moments.

oh i can't wait till i am standing in that same spot. snapping that same pic. just melting in disbelief :)

Isn't it wonderful? I made the mistake of not going to one of the tiers and if I ever get the chance to do it again-I will!

I almost cried when I saw this photo - that is so beautiful! xxoo :) Happy 4th of July, Olivia - wherever you are!

it is breathtaking!

ughh i know what you mean - i was speechless! you have such a lovely blog! ;) have a great weekend! xo

i would probably cry if i saw it, too... i can't even imagine how breathtaking it is!

You know, for some reason reading your blog and looking through your beautiful pictures make me SO happy. It really does. Sometimes I don't check your blog for weeks just so when I do check it I know there will be a lot of new posts to read.
Coincidently, I went to cofc for a year in 2007 (I was an exchange student).
Anyway, I just want to say that you are awesome, and that you make me feel good about life. Hope you are having fun in europe!

Fabulous shot! I will see it with my own eyes someday and surely have the same reaction :)

Oh my... I think I would cry too! I've never seen the Eiffel Tower but I hope to some day...

I felt the same way, I was awestruck, and speechless, but I felt the same way about Paris, the city itself...once you go there, you are always going to be thinking about going back.

It's beautiful!! I can't wait to see it one day

I arrived in Paris for the first time at rush hour, climbed the stairs from the Metro. It had just begun to rain. I crossed the street, turned a corner, and there it was, peeking through the trees. Incroyable!

Paris is magical. Have fun.

I had the same experience :)
