Afterword, we made our way to a nearby fire station for the Bastille Day Firemen's ball. On Bastille Day, all the fire stations in Paris open up to the public for parties, with dancing and bars filled with firemen serving the drinks :)
On the morning of Bastille Day, July 15th, Taylor arrived! While I was waiting for her at my corner cafe, I witnessed remnants of the military parade and the air show.
In the evening Taylor and I made our way to the Champ de Mars to picnic and watch the fireworks in front of the Eiffel tower. The crowd there was huge!
The sun stays up forever in Paris in the summer, and the fireworks finally began around 11pm. It was a fantastic show set to music - one of the best fireworks shows I've ever seen.
Taylor took this video towards the end:
Looking forward to another week of Paris exploration with Taylor!!
