My contribution for this week’s challenge…
Resilient
~~~~~
This week I decided to post
some images of landmarks which…
were talked about when I was at school…
have been through two World Wars…
and which we were fortunate enough
to visit in September, 2016.
Although we only made it to the second level
of the Eiffel Tower it was an experience
not to be forgotten.
We were told that we could climb up, inside,
the Arc De Triomphe,
however, my knees, ankles and feet
suggested otherwise.
And although were saddened to see this site
as it was our last night of the tour…
It was wonderful to get back on British soil again.
I don’t know how many times I said ‘grazie‘
only to realise that we had crossed a border
and now should have said ‘merci‘, or ‘danke‘.

That shot of Eiffel Tower at night is magical — and so hard to capture well, I found out. Best wishes for a great year ahead. Looking forward to more great captures from you!

Could have spent weeks in some of the cities instead of a few hours. Still we did see and visit many major tourist spots/attractions. And even though it was a sandwich on the run we can say we had lunch at the Eiffel Tower ;-D All the best to you and yours also for 2017
