Saturday 19th July: This is the view of Paris towards Monmarte over the Seine. You can almost see the curvature of the Earth as you are over 1000 feet above the ground. A head for heights is essential to be lifted to this point in one of the four glass walled lifts from level two to the top. As the lift ascends and later descends, everyone crammed into the lift is silent, and you can only hear the 'click click' of the lift machinery, while watching the slightly unnerving moving view through the tower steelwork. The view is inexplicable!
