I saw the Eiffel Tower this past weekend. My friends and I hopped in the car, drove to Milwaukee, and walked three blocks to Cathedral Square Park for Bastille Days. A much smaller version of the Eiffel Tower awaited us along with food, music, and vender tents.The jewelry the venders were selling should have had a “Do Not Touch” sign next to them because the metal and plastic was burning hot in the sun. Some were almost literally untouchable. There was lots of French food I couldn’t pronounce, but there was American and Mexican food as well. It seems like you can always get a hamburger no mater where you go. Some of my friends were pretty excited to delve into large chocolate covered crepes.
My favorite part of the day was when we were sitting at a table in the shade listening to live opera on stage. The singer came to the part of the song that must have been marked double forte. What a powerful voice! She was so loud she startled a lady who was walking past the area. She pretty much stopped in her tracks for a second. It was hilarious.
