#8 Heard in Algiers, or, The Bermuda Crescent

"From West Bank to East Bank the best
Way to cross is the bridge. Heads due west.
To get to the Quarter,
Just follow the water
Downriver, due north."
"A beau geste! Uh, cher."

Total lie, of course. Gotta take the ferry. Caught the fireworks from practically underneath, lounging on the rail of the ramp one magic muggy July evening. After being irked that the boat was delayed, no less.
