I’m back. I have been on a ski trip for Christmas with some of my family and was unable to get any Internet access for some posts I had written ahead of time. We had a great time. Now, back to Paris.

The Canal St Martin is always interesting to visit. It’s especially fun if a canal boat shows up and you get to see them work the locks.


The boat waiting for the water to rise in a lock before it can move on.


A friendly guy on the back of the boat. I thought he was the captain at first but I don’t think the captain would be taking photos.
