The Eiffle Tower is something I wanted to see since I was a little girl. It's one of the first historical land marks that kids remember because it's so different. I was so excited to see it and I had very high expectations... Don't get me wrong, it is so impressive in person. However, the surroundings aren't that great. Paris is a great city, but with the expectations I had going there, it ruined it for me. When you see something new, or experience something new go in with an open mind and make up your own mind about how you feel. Don't let other people and their experiences influence how you are supposed to feel about something. Live your own life, make your own judgments and enjoy your own experiences.
