On Christmas Day, I visited the Eiffel Tower. For adults, a lift ticket to the second floor was €9. Climbers only had to pay €5. Presented with an offer to save €4, boost my Fitbit stats, and skip the long line, I jumped at the opportunity.
At the first stage, I found an unobstructed view of Paris facing Montparnasse and Hotel des Invalides.
You can even see a rare glimpse of sunlight. Most of the trip was overcast with light rain.
