Back in France & an Eiffel Tower visit

The tower at midnight
  Mary and Dave are back in Paris! To everyone we got to spend time with during our visit back to the States, we had so much fun and it was good to see you.  To everyone else, sorry we missed you!

 We were scolded multiple times for not visiting the Louvre or the Eiffel Tower during our time in Paris but we scratched one of those off our list last night when we visited the Eiffel 58 restaurant. We were there to celebrate Mary's birthday and for the record this was planned before our trip home!  We had a great time despite an overcast night and a fair bit of rain.

ps. It is an expensive way to do it but getting dinner reservations is a great way to jump the elevator line at the tower.
An impromptu shot of Mary as we approach the tower.


We took a walk around on the first platform before dinner, unfortunately no sunset because of the weather


Mary had the salmon

Dave had the veal
But of course its all about the view! This is what we saw from our table.
 

After dinner we walked up to the second platform
