,, - E - g , Eg ,A ,Y ' rf f .J ,gin-.Q-L During the month of September, USS Shenandoah spent most of its time tending ships in Marseille and Toulon, france. Shenandoah's port call to Marseille was September o-27. With so many American ships around, it hardly looked like a foreign port. Marseille is the second largest city in France and is the main seaport. The French have become accustomed to American sailors lrequenting the city and they take pride in showing off their beautiful harbor, hills and historical sights. just about everything a sailor would want to see in Marseille was within walking distance. So, Shenandoah crewmembers put on their walking shoes and set out to see the sights. One very popular historical sight was the Basilica of Notre Dame de la Garde, built on the site of an ancient fort S00 feet above sea level. What a walk it was going up the mountain, but once there, the beauty of the Basilica was well worth the trip. Getting all that exercise, Shenandoah sailors really worked up an appetite. What better way to conquer hunger than with fine French cuisine. Every type of food you could think of was available and finding a restaurant was no problem, but reading the menu was anoth- er story. The waiters and waitress had their work cut out for them deciphering their culinary delights for the crew. And, of course, if all else fails, there was a McDonalds nearby. As always, Shenandoah's Welfare and Rec was on the scene setting up tours to Paris, Monte Carlo and the French Riviera. Paris proved to be just like you see in the movies, only better because we were there. The Eiffel Tower gave a fantastic view of surrounding cities and the Louvre Museum kept history and art buffs interested for hours. 189 195
