I graduated high school in June 1968. From mid July until Aug. 30 I was in Paris. We took an ocean liner* out of Montreal up the St. Lawrence river, and yes, as we got closer to the Atlantic, about 3 days out or so, the river got wider, and wider, and wider. At one point people looking out over the water thought we had finally got to the Atlantic. We were told no, the river is just very, very wide here - we proabably reached the sea that everning or early the next morning (no IIRC here - that was 50 [holy,moly] years ago.*SS Maasdam, Holland America Line. The ship was going to be sold to Poland that fall. This was a final trip under the original owners - the ship was completely, and I mean completely, filled with student charter groups* bound for all over western Europe. My group was going to Paris, others to various French cities, other groups were going to Belgium, etc. *the only people over 25 were the chaperones and trip counselors, the latter mostly high school teachers, IIRC. |
