Paris: Eiffel Tower

Dave went up the Eiffel Tower. He walked up to the second level, about 700 steps, which I find totally admirable. He had a great time taking photos at the first and second levels, some of which I'll post here, and he decided he didn't want to get any higher (900 more steps!). So he was ready to go down. All the stairs going down were closed, and he had to wait a half hour for an elevator back to the bottom.
