In the afternoon we sauntered over to Mike and Phyllis' apartment in the Grenelle neighborhood in order to try a restaurant for dinner that had been highly recommended by their AirBNB hostess. The evening's menu consisted of rack of lamb with beets and nectarines in broth and red wine reduction along with a dessert of chocolate salted caramel and ice cream topped the evening. We made our toasts to a wonderful little Parisian rendezvous and said our au revoirs, all of us just thrilled at cool it was that we were able to visit them while they were vacationing.
Although it was chilly outside, we decided to walk back to our hotel but as we were leaving we saw the sky begin to sparkle and realized that the Eiffel Tower was taunting us. We decided we would take yet another opportunity to see the magnificent structure that lures many locals and tourists alike to this iron lattice tower. We were not disappointed. We took photos, kissed and watched double marathon racers finish at the tower's plaza.
