Flat Stanley Brayden’s Adventure Blog: Paris from the Sky, Underground Mysteries, and a Night of Soccer Magic!
Bonjour, super explorers! It’s me, Flat Stanley Brayden, back with another amazing Paris story. Yesterday was a day I’ll never forget—full of sky-high views, ancient secrets, sparkling lights, and even a championship soccer celebration! Let’s jump right in.
Breakfast at Le Sénat Hotel
We started our big day with a yummy breakfast at our hotel. Croissants, fruit, and hot chocolate—delicious! I made sure to eat plenty because we had a busy day ahead.
Fun Fact:
In France, breakfast is called “le petit déjeuner,” and it’s usually simple but tasty.
Montparnasse Tower Observatory – Paris from Above!
Our first adventure took us zooming up the Montparnasse Tower, one of the tallest buildings in Paris. The elevator whooshed us up 56 floors in just seconds! At the top, the whole city looked like a toy village. I could see the Eiffel Tower, the River Seine, and even tiny soccer fans getting ready for the big Champions League match!
Challenge:
How many famous Paris sights can you spot from the top? (I counted at least five!)

Notre-Dame Cathedral & Crypt – Secrets Below the Streets
Next, we explored the legendary Notre-Dame Cathedral. Even though it’s being repaired, it’s still beautiful and full of history. Our guide told us stories about gargoyles and ancient kings. Then, we went underground into the crypt, where we saw Roman ruins and learned about the very first days of Paris!
Learning Moment:
The crypt shows how Paris has changed for over 2,000 years. Imagine walking where Roman soldiers and medieval kings once walked!

Eiffel Tower Tour & Seine River Cruise – Lights, Fireworks, and Soccer Cheers!
In the afternoon, we visited the most famous landmark in Paris—the Eiffel Tower! We took the elevator up to the observation deck, just as the city was buzzing with excitement for the Champions League soccer final. Paris fans were everywhere, waving flags and singing songs.
Suddenly, the crowd below erupted in cheers—Paris scored a goal! The Eiffel Tower lit up, fireworks exploded in the distance, and we saw it all from way up high. It felt like the whole city was celebrating together!
Afterwards, we enjoyed a relaxing cruise down the River Seine, watching the city sparkle as the sun set.
Fun Fact:
The Eiffel Tower lights up every night, but during special events—like a big soccer win—it gets extra sparkly!

A Ride-Share Adventure and a Light Show Surprise
After our cruise, we tried to get a ride back to the hotel, but everyone in Paris seemed to be celebrating! We waited and waited, but the delay turned out to be a lucky break. Just as the soccer game ended, the Eiffel Tower put on a spectacular light show, and we had a perfect view. Sometimes, waiting can lead to the best surprises!
Late Night Meal – A Parisian Tradition!
Back at the hotel, we were still hungry from all our adventures. So, we took a walk down three hills from the hotel to find a late-night meal. The streets were alive with happy fans, and the city felt magical under the twinkling lights.

Travel Tip:
In Paris, it’s normal to eat dinner late, especially after a big celebration!
