For Fathers Day we decided to go to Paris, France to do a quick tour.
The famous Notre Dame.
We looked long and hard but no Quasimodo.
It is a beautiful Cathedral.
The Eiffel Tower was built in 1889 for the Worlds Fair.
It is 1063 feet tall, it has 2 restaurants in it.
You can buy a ticket to take the elevator or stairs to the first and second floors.
We also placed a lock on the Love lock bridge, there are so many locks on this bridge that the city safety board is trying to figure out how to keep the railing from collapsing.
We decided to make a stop at the Louvre to see the Mona Lisa.
If you have seen Edge of Tomorrow this should look familiar.
Since we just saw the movie the day before Jonah thought it was cool.
The line didnt take to long at all, i think we were in line for prob 30 min.
Inside the Louvre. The museum originally opened in 1793 with 537 paintings today it houses over 35,000 objects.
Leonardo De Vinci painting of John the Baptist
De Vinci's Mona Lisa
This huge painting was hung high on the wall and looked like a photograph it is so realistic.
The interior is beautiful, over 650,000 square feet you can not walk around the thing all in one day.
As we were leaving Paris we decided to take a look at the other lady liberty.
Yes the french artist made 2 lady liberty's the one in Paris is only 37 feet tall.
She faces West and the American Lady Liberty faces East, pretty cool huh?
