    You can pay to go up the South tower using only your legs and spirit. If you prepare properly you can run up in double quick time and beat the maddening crowds. If you strike it lucky you can walk the bit from level 2 to level 3 however this is not for the faint hearted - believe me as I have made the journey and it is very freaky!!

    Equipment: Lots of water, camera and choc bars.

     Nice photos on your travelogues and tips. Sounds like you have had at least two good visits there.

     great tip on napoleon's tomb. you mentioned you can see napoleon's field bed. it's not there. because i saw it last week in columbia south carolina usa. but i am sure once the napoleon exhibit is the u.s. is over they will return it to paris. :) doug48
