Episode 108: Sight-seeing |
Helen: |
The guidebook says 'The Eiffel Tower weighs 7,300 tons and is 324 metres tall'.
|
Alice: |
Really?
|
Helen: |
Yes, but who cares about the facts and figures, let's go up!
|
Alice: |
Up there? Oh it's so much nicer seeing it from the ground. Tell me more about this fascinating piece of architecture.
|
Helen: |
Mmh, let's see, 'The tower can sway up to 7 centimetres in the wind.' |
Alice: |
Oh no! I'm definitely not going up now.
|
Helen: |
You can't come to Paris and not go up the Eiffel Tower.
|
Alice: |
Just watch me!
|
Helen: |
You're not scared, are you Alice?
|
Alice: |
The technical term is acrophobia, if you must know.
|
Helen: |
Oh come on, take my hand. We'll go up slowly, I promise.
|
Alice: |
No!
