We were on the Eiffel tower at the beginning of the hour and so it started to light up like you'll see in this video. It was phenomenal seeing the massive structure and it really is an awesome site and marvel to think they built something like this just to impress people- it turns out 100+ years ago Mr. Eiffel beat the competition for the best design and everything- he beat out somebody that proposed to build a huge replica of a guillotine (which I am sure would have been a huge crowd magnet, "hey everyone, come see how we ran our government for a few years.") Although, it doesn't represent France's past, it certainly represents France since it was built and long into the future.
