A bottle of wine was 2 Mark and 12 Schilling and it tasted like sour applesauce. There were more ships anchored in Le Havre than one was able to count. At 2:00 PM in the afternoon the sun stood directly above us and it was almost to hot. 9:00 PM - and everything was quiet as could be. We were anchored in Le Havre's harbor but we might as well have been in the center of town. A man with a barrel on his back was selling chocolate. A glass and a hand towel hanging from his chest. On one side he bore a bell and on the other he had a spout for the barrel.
