The images presented were taken in the 1990's. Taken as prints, there is degradation when going from print to digital images. Also, where we were traveling sometimes delayed processing for weeks or months and humidity played havoc with the undeveloped film. Still, I wanted to share our experiences through the pictures we took.
  November 1999. We made it to Paris and docked right in the heart of the city. We contemplated spending the winter, but we found out we had to provide boat insurance, which was astronomical, so we had to pass on the idea. BUT, we did stay a few weeks and one day, we bussed out to Versailles. What an experience! We had a wonderful day, envisaging what it must have been like in "the day." Beautiful grounds and impressive architecture.
This was a real kick. Eiffel, of Eiffel Tower fame, designed and built a canal bridge across a river! Here we are making our crossing. It's one-way, so we had to be careful and not dawdle too much on our crossing. The river is 200 feet below us. Each of us took our turn to ride and then to take a picture. What fun and what a memory!
