anned By this time we were all a little weary. We had traveled a long way and had seen a great variety of peoples and places such that the thrill of a new port no longer carried the fine edge that went along with previous stops. In general, we were a long time and a long way from home and ready to return. ' Surely, there could be no better port in the world to be scheduled at this particular time than Cannes, for here at the queen city of the Cote D'zure we experienced a needed morale boost by absorbing a little of the atmosphere that goes along with the playground of the world. Unfortunately the winter season denied us the use of the fine beaches and summer sports facilities, but the French hospitality and genius for happy living knows no season and we wasted no time in becoming a part of it. Now that we had returned to western civilization, things about us were quite a bit more familiar g sightseeing and curious onlooking took second place to enjoying the ubiqui- tous fine food, drink and companionship of the Riviera. Many of us took advantage of the ready access of Nice and Monte Carlo to visit the world famous gambling casinos and view some of the homes 'belonging to international social figures whose names are common place in our home town newspapers. And, when it came to shopping around town, it would be hard to find a man who did not fall victim to the attractive odors and prices of French perfumes. , New Yearis Eve saw many a bottle of French champagne serve the cause of interna- tional good will, and the following morning there were many of us who were wishing that these relations were not quite so good. But, apart from any vineyard stimulus, when january second came and we departed for Gibraltar there were many who were not quite as anxious to beheading home as they had been, and all of us were saying Thanks, Cannes, for a good time, we will be looking forward to seeing you again on our next Mediterranean cruise. -xr 3 Q-1 i if -v up A Z-, X ll: 1 XXXX X f, Q , N E7 E : Q Q
