Paris: The Eiffel Tower

Pictures of the Eiffel Tower -- so ordinary! Everyone sees it from everywhere in Paris. Our friend Michelle sees it from her window. We had a view of it from one apartment that we rented on a long stay in Paris (unfortunately, we also had a very close view of an elevated Metro track). You catch glimpses of it while walking around, crossing a street, sitting in a cafe...

But it's actually very impressive! Look:

From the Pantheon 
Looking up...
The manege (merry-go-round) beside the Seine.
From the Palais de Chaillot gardens.
From the Trocadero
Evening at Belleville: both the Eiffel Tower and the Tour de Montparnasse on the horizon. 
From Belleville, also with the Roue des Tuilleries
(that is, the Ferris Wheel in the Tuilleries)
