We arrived in Rouen last night. The ship docked about 5 blocks from the historic center of the city, which is remarkably close. This is famous as being the city where Joan of Arc was burned at the stake by the British. In the am Marge and I walked the city center, then while Marge visited a museum featuring impressionist artists, I explored more. After lunch at the ship, we had a guided walking tour of the city. I liked Rouen because it is historic, fairly compact and not nearly as crowded as Paris.
For dinner, one choice was roasted turkey with all the trimmings. It was good, but we missed Thanksgiving dinner with the family.
