Waving from Such Great Heights


Paris from the summit of the Tour Eiffel
  
We finally made it to the summit of the Tour Eiffel the last week of our semester, it was well worth the wait. I find it ironic that while I captured almost all of Paris in these photos, the absence of the iconic landmark in the cityscape loomed in the back of my mind.

To avoid the long lines, I suggest not going during high season. Mid-May was still a little early for the massive crowds. Also, be sure to purchase tickets in advance, and don't forget to click the "summit" option!
