From the Top of Montparnasse Tower

"The best views of all of Paris!" proclaims the guidebook for The Paris Pass.

The building loomed in the near distance during our stroll through Jardin du Luxembourg, so we headed in that direction. After waiting in line for about a minute, JoAnna lost her nerve, her fear of heights (more specifically, having to look down from a great distance) taking over. A panoramic photo of the glass-enclosed observation deck on the roof of the 57-story building, displayed above the ticket counter, sent her heading for the nearest cafe.

Andy, Eddie, and I enjoyed the spectacular 360 view, though blustery winds left me feeling a bit unsteady on my feet.
