Yesterday they rode the elevator to the top of the Eiffel Tower, cruised the River Seine and were treated to a driving tour of Paris. You can view a slideshow below.

The kids had a rocky start – their flight was delayed for a few hours – but they made the best of it, laughing together and trying out the various electronic devices they got for Christmas. In addition to lessons about history, they’ve mastered perseverance while traveling, Euro exchange rates, and plug-in adapters & converters.

The team will travel to London later in the week, and they’ve carved out some time to practice their routines to ensure flawless performances for European crowds. It’s an experience they aren’t likely to forget.
