How to visit, les Invalides, the Eiffel Tower and more in two days or less.

Hey Guys Whats up!

So this past week we did Walk 4 which is pretty long so we split it up over a couple days

First day: La Tour-Eiffel

So we climbed ( or in my case took the elevator) up to the top of the Eiffel Tower.

Here's the view from the second floor

The top was pretty sweet. It's so tall that all of the people looked like ants below us, It was so crazy.

There's one foot of the tower

The way down
After climbing the tower we rode the carosuel under it and then went to the Inception Bridge.

After the Bridge we walked on an island in the middle of the Seine to the Statue of Liberty.

Second day: Museums, Manifestations and more Museums
To finish of the walk, we went to the two Museums on the walk, Musée Rodin and Invalides, Musée de l'Armée.

Pont d'Alexandre just in front of Invalides

Musée Rodin is a museum dedicated to the sculptures of Rodin who sculpted famous pieces like The Thinker, The Kiss, Honor to Balzac, etc. It's a great museum with an outdoor garden with several of his statues and then a mansion with his more fragile pieces inside.

 The Gates of Hell, from Dante's Inferno

 The Thinker

 Honor to Balzac

 Hotel Biron where his more fragile works are displayed

The Kiss

Two Paintings by Van Gogh, Pictures of his paintings don't do them justice.

I liked the stone wave, because it was very lifelike

The museum plans were drawn up by Rodin himself and it's pretty cool.
Inside the place where you buy your tickets there was another exposition going on, this exposition had modern art by sculptors and photographers today. Some of it was really cool and others were bizarre and not my cup of tea.

 The two coolest optical illusion artworks

After Musée Rodin, Mckenna and I went to Invalides. We knew that a third of our group was there and we thought perhaps the other third was as well. After getting in and buying our tickets, we waited for the other girls. They ended up texting us to say that they couldn't get in because the museum was closed due to a manifestation, which was weird because from where we were they were still letting people in. Anywho it turned out that we had come in from a different entrance that was still open, so the other two girls just got out of there before the manifestation got worse.

What it looked like on our side of the Museum, super busy with cop cars and other cars as well as lots of smoke.

Anywho, after that drama Mckenna and I went into the museum and looked at their medieval armor wing. It was really cool!

Then we went and saw Napoleon's Tomb and that was also pretty cool.

Then a week later Me and Natalie went back because she hadn't been there yet and we visited the wing dedicated to the World Wars as well as the other wings I'd already been in.

So after two days (technically 3) we saw everything on that walk and the longest walk was made easy.
Until the next time--
