Jules Verne is the restaurant situated on the second level if the Eiffel Tower and where our “special treat” lunch was booked Thursday.
Unfortunately, this would prove to be the greyest day weather wise in our week but there was nothing dull about the food!
We zipped up in the private elevator and from beginning to end enjoyed sublime service and a wonderful three course meal.
Stumbling out on to the viewing deck we took the obligatory photos and the girls decided not to go up to the third level so instead we headed to the Trocadero for the photo op up there.
Russell and I headed home to do some housekeeping whilst the girls managed a 'cooks tour' of the Louvre. Somewhat later we saw our sixth rider, Christy, emerge from the subway with a large suitcase and looking somewhat exhausted after her train trip from London 🙂
After a drink she soon revived and we chatted for a while before retiring, leaving Christy to look out for the 11pm light show on the Tower before she tried the sofa bed!
