I saw a boat!

A French built, wooden sailing ship came to Alexandria, and, since it was the it thing to do, I saw it. The ship is called the Hermione and it is a best recreation of the ship that General Lafayette used to come to the New World. I managed to rope my friends Sharon and David to come with me. It was huge and filled with Frenchies so I know David loved it. One interesting component of its construction was they used the actual techniques that French shipbuilders would have used over 150 years ago.
