i have seen a bottle of some kind of brandy in an Eiffel tower bottle and thought it was pretty cool http://www.alivenotdead.com/duckymel/blog.html?selection_all_page_2 i want to collect different types of alcohol and there bottles any links or names would be apreciated
Answer :
The Whisky Shop has a few http://www.whiskyshop.com/ although best to visit one of their shops as their window displays are often quite intersting (e.g. golf ball shaped, glass bottle with a tap etc.
cheers i have come across a vodka based drink called DQ what comes in a completly cylinder shaped bottle with a twist cap and lights up and bubbles £50 its nice the link you gave me has some good bottles 2
Answer :
Just do a google search for "interesting alcohol bottles" or "cool alcohol bottles".
Do you specifically want the alcohol in the original bottles, because if not, you could always buy really neat decanters from antique shops. That's what I do with some of mine.
Answer :
I saw a Vodka bottle at the liquor store yesterday that was shaped as a skull. The Vodka cost $45. I do not recall the name, but I am sure you could Google it easily enough.

French help? My daughters doing her homework?
I need to check if its correct, but translators are always wrong, can someone help me with the following?
how do you say;
My name is
I'm going to visit France this summer
I'll leave LAX airport and arrive at Laon - Chambry Airport
I'll be staying at the Le Grimaldi
In France ill be visiting museums, and restaurants
Also, ill visit Baptistère Saint-Jean
I'm going to be taking the subway to get to different places
I wanna see the parks and beaches
At night I'll go to see the beautiful Eiffel tower
But what i want to see the most is Baptistère Saint-Jean.
After my wonderful trip, ill be returning home
Thanks so much for any help that can be contributed, I want to make sure she did the project right and didn't use translator.
Answer :
Mon nom est/ Je m'appelle
Je vais visiter la France cet été
Je partirai de l'aéroport international de Los Angeles et arriverai à l'aéroport de Laon-Chambéry
Je serai à l'hôtel Le Grimaldi
En France, je visiterai des musées et j'irai au restaurant
Je visiterai aussi le baptistère de Saint-Jean
Je prendrai le métro pour me déplacer (ou me rendre à différents endroits)
Je veux voir les parcs et les plages
La nuit, j'irai voir la belle Tour Eiffel.
Mais ce que je veux voir le plus, c'est le baptistère de Saint-Jean
Après ce merveilleux voyage, je rentrerai chez moi.

En soirée, je vais aller voir la belle tour Eiffel.
Mais ce que je veux le plus faire est de visiter le Baptistère Saint-Jean.
Après mon fabuleux voyage, je vais retourner à la maison.
But, you know, there's many way to say these things, you can never be sure she didn't use any translator unless you know some french grammar yourself. In fact, I believe I just did the homework for someone. Just give me my 10 points already. :)

Who has visited the eiffel tower, i have some questions?
Well, im making a model out of wood, what color should i paint it?
Also, if you stood under it, what shape would the landing be, a square or a rectangle?
What about the other landings?
Can you stand at the very topmost landing?
Will it work if i construct four side views, and then put those sides together?
Answer :
Hi
I live in Paris and as a Professional Photographer will send you a few images if that would help.
You will have to add me as a contact and then email me so I can forward the attachments.
But to answer some of your questions.
The landing is Square on both the first and second floor. Le Jules Verne occupies one of them completely.
You can go to the very top to the observation deck.
Not sure about how to construct it...
Answer :
The same architect constructed the Statue of Liberty.
The color is special to the Eiffel Tower and probably won't be changed anymore, though it has been many colors over the years. Currently it is is a gray-brown color. It has 3 levels. Levels One and Two are good enough for any tourist. The third level has a restaurant, very very expensive, but I think anyone can go there.
What is most distinguishing is that it is lite at night, very impressive, much like a fireworks show. It has fast twinkling light shows every hour at the top of the hour. Then there is a rotating beacon of strong white light coming from the very top. The color of the lights is changed every few years, or for special occasions, like the Olympics. Currently the lights are yellow-gold. The lighting should definitely be included on your model. You should be able to find a toy model or outline somewhere. This year is the 120th anniversary of the Eiffel Tower.
It has 3 viewing areas (outside floors) accessed by elevator and stairs. It is on a square concrete pad, quite large, under it. A rectangular ticket office is under it. There are very nice pay-binoculars mounted on the outside railings. There were soldiers on the ground carrying machine guns. It's located in a little park, with a bigger park on one side.
There are two small Statue of Libertys on a small island in the Seine, and another nearby of just the head, full size head. The two small versions are visible from the Eiffel Tower.
