Day 20 - August 27 - Paris

Finished the French trip with some sight-seeing in Paris, ended with a boat ride down the Seine and the spectacular sight of the Eiffel Tower all lit up. Had gone up the Tower earlier, which I did out of a spirit of duty as I don't like heights much. To try and get some exercise I decided to walk down the stairs and rather regretted it as I kept coming round a corner and seeing how far down it was. At one point the legs began to feel a bit wobbly, but I made it down and lived to write the tale.
