"Paris was delightful. Usually is," Michaelis agreed. "A nice change of scenery."
"Eiffel Tower still standing?" Jerry asked.
"I didn't inspect it personally, but it seems fine," Michaelis replied.
Believe it or not, I've been so intent on getting wherever I'm going that this morning I looked up and saw the Eiffel Tower for the first time. It certainly does seem fine!
