I met this man at the boat when I came real early and he came shorly after and then again about an hour later when we bumped into each other as he left a park.
I went back to the apartment and Thomas made me a lunch and then carried Silver downstairs. I loaded her and we walked down to the main street together and said goodbye.
Thomas, I can never thank you enough for the three beautiful days that I had in Paris. May God bless you.
I cycled the 15 km south to Anthony to meet Manon from Amiens at 3 o'clock to stay at her mother's house.
