Yesterday, we visited Effiel Tour in Paris, it was a pleasent experience. We took the elevator to the top level of the tour. We had a great time there, and it was a once-in-a-life time experience. I do recommended everyone to go there, we can go twice too =P. We then went to a delighting restaurant on the Champs-Elyesses called PIZZA PINO, it was wonderful and the food is top quality.
