Paris - Up, Down, Sideways

We got let off on some side street, and ate lunch in some lousy café. For ten francs each, we had shitty submarine sandwiches and wine – UGH!
Mom, Dad, Mark, and I then took a taxi to the Eiffel Tower, and an elevator up to the 2nd landing. Paris is beautiful from up there. I took quite a few pictures, which I hope will turn out good.

When we got down, we taxied to the Louvre, which is the biggest palace in the world. At one time, Louis the 14th lived there; now it is a very famous museum. We saw a lot for the amount of time we were there, of course including the Mona Lisa.
We then walked to the metro (a long distance), and had to change lignes three times before we got to our stop. Mom and Dad wanted to buy a cake, so Mark and I decided to walk to the hotel. Well, we got lost. Finally, we turned around and made it back. My feet are still killing me.
At about 6:30, we’re going to take the metro to the Safarik’s apartment, and eat a meal cooked by the young couple living there.
