We bid farewell to our fellow canal boat crew members over 2 days - Dick leaving on Wednesday and Ruth, John, Jan, and Maureen the following day. We shopped one of the market streets in our neighborhood and gathered roasted chicken, pommes de terres (potatoes) baked under the roasting chicken, fresh salad, great bread, wine and pastries for dessert. Bob, a Seattle friend also visiting Paris, joined us as we gave Dick a proper send-off.
We went on a Seine River cruise the next night, boarding just as it was getting dark. It was amazing to see Paris in lights!

We ended with a longer than expected subway ride - our transfer station was closed so we took an underground metro tour on our way back to our home station in the Marais.
