End of Barge Trip!
Breakfast was a somewhat somber affair this morning since we all knew the trip was nearly over. We said our goodbyes to the crew, had a group picture and then boarded the bus to go back to Paris. We had one rest stop for Neil (the driver) to get some coffee and as he predicted the traffic in Paris was terrible but we made pretty
good time all things considered. The weather today was sunny and cool. After saying our goodbyes to each other, we all dispersed to our hotels or to the airport for our last hours or days in Paris before returning home. The Jensen’s and Switzer’s enjoyed a nice lunch on I’lle St. Louis (near where we are staying) and then dinner at the
nearby La Marée Verte restaurant near St. Germaine Blvd. We leave Sunday and the Jensen’s leave Monday. So this is the last message to the whole group.
Gary Carroll is the only one who got a group picture – so I won’t be able to put one on the web site until I get a copy from him. This was a “once in a lifetime??? trip that we will have memories of for the rest of our lives! Thanks again to everyone who contributed to making the trip a successful one. Some of them had a special part – Lucille for coming up with the idea and getting us going, Ginny for helping keep us informed, Galusha’s for getting us together as a group and all you others that helped make it happen!
Thank you Big Time!
