Everything Eiffel

It was always a dream to go see the Eiffel tower! I love this large hunk of metal! It truly is a beautiful piece of architecture. I'm amazed at its history! It was meant to stand for 10 years after the world fair of 1889, but due to some help for military operations during both World Wars, France decided to keep it!

Here's my deep dark secret . . . the fascination is that it was probably the world's largest science experiment. Eiffel built it to send radio signals, to house a barometer, and to study wind. On the bottom of it are engraved hundreds of scientists names who have made great contributions to society!

In late June of 2004 I was able to spend quite a bit of time in Europe, and one of the most memorable places we visited was of course the Eiffel tower!


I love everything EIFFEL! My bedroom is decorated with a Paris theme, and anything Eiffel can be found here! I even have Eiffel tower jewelry! Go figure! I just love Paris, and the Eiffel Tower. What's not to love about something so beautiful!

And the view at sunset is miraculous!
