The show starts with the usual 5 minutes of glittering, which takes place at the top of every hour. (Honestly, this was my favorite part.)
The rest of the show lasts for 12 minutes, one minute for each decade the tower has been standing. The first part was lights slowly going from the bottom to the top, which represents the building of the tower.
After that, it was just a hodge-podge of color.
Marc had to hold Eva up so she could see. She loved it.
The French flag!
When the show was over, we decided to walk home. It's a nice walk under the tower, through the Champ de Mars, and then a block or so to the apartment.
It stays blue inside for awhile afterward.
To tell the truth, this is my favorite view of all, the one from our front window. But I doubt that will surprise anyone who knows me...

That seems like a rather fun and perfect almost-last outing for your stay in Paris.
I am not surprised at all that your favorite view of the tower is the one from your window!
My goodness! Did you all share photos or did you capture all those colors by yourself?
Home. There truly is no where like it. I like your view, too.
P.S. How is the readjusting coming? How is your furnace working?
How perfect!--This was like the grand finale to your Paris adventure...
So very beautiful! What a great goodbye to Paris!
BTW--if anyone is reading this comment. . .go back and scroll through this post really quick. All of the Eiffel Tower photos look really cool at high speed!
A perfect ending!
That would have been a great outing! What is it about lights? We all love to look and them and it is amazing what they can do with them.
I just read Jill's Creative Friday post & had to bustle right over here to say...
...WELCOME HOME, for real!
What a happy post, to see Creative Friday goodness once again.
Your hair color, sister! Gorgeous, rich, mahogany & beautiful.
Merry (American) Christmas!
