Eiffel Tower from the River Seine

The next morning, Thursday, May 19, 2005, we awoke to threatening skies. Marti had a feeling that it could rain for several days and she was concerned that of all the things they could visit she would not be able to see the Eiffel Tower.

Bob did not agree. He thought the weather would be fine and we'd have many opportunities to see the Eiffel Tower, but because he couldn't guarantee it, we walked all the way to the River Seine near the Eiffel Tower for a picture on the bridge.

At this point, Bob was not a happy-camper. They had walked all that way, two miles plus, and although it had sprinkled, it really had not rained and it was hard to say whether it would.
