Michelle Obama, Malia & Sasha In Paris, May Dine Atop Eiffel Tower (Photos)








































Huffington Post----

PARIS — Michelle Obama and her two daughters have paid a surprise visit to the Eiffel Tower.

The first lady, 10-year-old Malia and 7-year-old Sasha spent about 45 minutes at the Parisian icon Friday night as President Barack Obama was arriving in France.

An Associated Press Television News journalist saw the three enter the Eiffel Tower by the south pillar. Michelle Obama waved to tourists who squealed and greeted her back.

It was not clear whether the Obamas went to the top of the Eiffel Tower.

The Obamas go to Normandy on Saturday for D-Day commemoration ceremonies. Michelle and the girls are expected to stay in France until Monday. The president leaves Sunday.

French newspapers had speculated that the Obamas, and possibly their daughters, would dine atop the Eiffel Tower.
