Paris Redux
... three little “extra” adventures. The first was a bunch of police boats on the swiftly flowing Seine attending to a barge restaurant that appeared to have been trying to sink. What was amusing was watching “les Flics”, ie the police, mishandling their boat as they tried to tie up to the riverbank.
