Sparkly, Sparkly Evening

The last night of SIE London Paris 2009 was celebrated with a dinner cruise on the Seine. We saw many beautiful Paris landmarks and buildings as we glided down the river on the crisp winter evening. Notre Dame, the Louvre, Musee D'Orsay, and the many bridges that connect the city. One of the highlights was seeing the Eiffel Tower lit up at night. As we sailed by the tower burst into a dazzling show of twinkling lights. Most people made a dash from the warm dining room to the upper deck of the boat to get a better view and take many pictures. Between the flashes of light from the city, the tower, and the camera flashes, it was indeed "sparkly, sparkly."
