Ode to Le Canal de Nivernais - Simone

Today we say good bye to our boat "Magnifique"
For being our home for the past two weeks
Thank you.
To our captain Bruce and our co-captain Ray
Who navigated through locks, tunnels, and narrow waterways
Thank you.
To our technological whiz and blog master Gerry
Who bailed us out of our computer woes constantly
Thank you.
To our fastidious accountant and the best rope coiler ever Barry
And to his wife Carolyn who knotted them back so gingerly
Thank you.
And from me, your scullery maid down below
Whose meals you ate with such gusto
Thank you.



Un Grande Merci to you Simone for Cheerfully and Expertly Feeding the Troops and keeping us on top of the sometimes strange and confusing French Customs and the Mysterious Nuances of the French Language.  MERCI from the well-fed and contented Crew of the Magnifique 511!!!
