Avery: Blog Of The Day 1

       Max, Max, Max. The Eiffel Tower is not made out of legos and is not a giant transformer (although that would be awesome!).  Also, I think you'd die if you went hang gliding attached to a kite wherever you are. The Eiffel Tower (a.k.a the Iron Lady) is made out of metals, screws to hold it in place, and all sorts of other things that I can't list at the moment.  It is 1,062.99 feet tall (324 meters) and it weighs 7,300 tons total.  That means it weighs more than our house!
       It was built by a French engineer named Gutave Eiffel.  That's how it got it's name.  Gutave wrote many names of 72 scientists on the Eiffel Tower on the beams.  Like... Petiet, Daguerre, Wurtz, Le Verrier, Perdonnet, Dalambre, Malus, Breguet, Polonceau, Dumas, Calpeyeron, Borda, Fourier, Bichat, Sauvage, Pelouze, Carnot, and Lame.  He put only their last names on it, not any of their firsts.  There are MANY more than that, but it would take hours to list.
       The Eiffel Tower was built in the city of Paris, France, which is in Europe.  Some people call Paris, the city of love, because it is very romantic place to be.  It is very pretty there and would be an awesome place to go on a vacation.
