It Can't Be New York!

The wiew from the top of the Eiffel Tower was amazing.

I could see for miles - I'm sure I could see all of Paris. Then I spotted something that confused me. The view was fantastic, but there was no way that I could have possibly seen all the way to New York. Yet there it was, as clear as could be, the Statue of Liberty.

As soon as I climbed back down to the ground, I went to have a closer look. Sure enough, there it was in the middle of Paris - the Statue of Liberty. I haven't heard anything about someone having stolen it, and I'm pretty certain something like that would have made the news. The only other explanation I could come up with is the "Ghost Busters", but I'm pretty sure that was just a movie.

Anyone else have any ideas?

I think I can ... I know I can!

It looked a bit frightening at first, but then I started thinking about the fantastic view I'd have from the top. That was all it took - I was off on the climb of my life.

It Is Taller...

Whoa! It actually is as tall as I thought it would be - maybe even taller. That is a long, long way up. Kind of makes me wonder...

I Thought It Would Be Taller

My first sight of the Eiffel Tower, from a bridge over the Seine. It is definitely impressive, but to be completely honest, it really doesn't look as tall as I thought it would. I think I'll have to go have a closer look.

Larger Than Life


Here is the finished picture. What do you think? I love it. The artist said that I look just like my dad - which amazed me, since my dad wasn't there. But of course, he was right. Maybe he's psychic...

Montmartre


The highlight of a wonderful trip to Paris was having my Caricature drawn in Montmartre. The artist seemed a bit surprised when I asked him to draw my picture, but after a moments hesitation, he gave it a go. Do you think it looks like me?
