Lying at the mouth of the river Seine, Le Havre is the gateway to Paris and northern France. This entire region has been part of the central heartland of European civilization for 20 centuries. Around 1800, one European in every five lived in France. The trip to Paris takes about 2-3 hours each way...very few went. Only those that have never been before would go, stay 2 hours and then leave. We have been there a few times and as we have to be off the ship around 7:00 in the morning, chose to stay in Le Havre, have lunch in town then come back to the ship to finish packing and end my blog. Took a long walk and just enjoyed our last day in port (that is, until Southampton tomorrow).
