Today was the culmination of all Christmas shopping experiences. Arriving in France during the night we were up bright and early this morning, raring to go.Swans paddled along side our River Rapsody ship in the canal, and for the first time we saw a sunrise!
This city, the first to be named a UNESCO World Heritage site, is magnificent! Though I' ve been here before this was a totally new experience. The cathedral is not just an "abc", it is formatable! The historic downtown was completely decorated for the season and the shops and Cristmas markets dotting the city had everything. We first took a long canal ride through the city, then a walking tour, followed by lunch and the rest of the day on our own to explore. Tried several typical recommended foods ( tarte flambee and the best gluhwein yet! ) Tonight will be the Farewell dinner - a perfect way to wrap up this cruise.
