Dinner Cruise on the Seine

One of Paul's customers took us out for a dinner cruise on the Seine on Tuesday night. There were 3 couples who went and we had the best time. The company was wonderful - I haven't laughed that hard in ages - and the views were amazing.

The Eiffel Tower strobes on the hour for about 10 minutes and our boat was passing right in front of it as it lit up. It was breathtaking.

This is from the upper deck in front of the Eiffel tower. It was such a beautiful night and it was so warm outside.

The cruise lasted a little over 2 hours and went past some amazing sights. Notre Dame was beautiful at night as was the Statue of Liberty. There were lots of people on the river walk partying and dancing as we rode by. Paris is such a party city! We were amazed at how many people were out so late on a Tuesday night. There were lots of students but there were also some dance parties with people our age. It looked like so much fun.

Here's a picture of the Statue of Liberty. The boat was turning around at this point so it came out a little blurry.
Paul bought me some roses as we walked off the boat. We arrived a couple minutes before 10pm and stayed until we all got to see the lights strobe one last time.
It was by far our best night in Paris. The meal was amazing, the view was incredible, and the other couples were so much fun. It made all those sleepless nights that Paul was helping this customer last year worth it.
