Long, somewhere I have a photo of this Floating Restaurant taken in 1966. It wasn't a three-decker then ... jus one main deck. There was no running water and they used river water to wash dishes, pots and pans, etc ... We tried not to think about that whenever we ate there (but the food was good and maybe enhanced by the water - who knows). The restaurant was occasionally the site of a bombing in the mid-1960's as well (which could spoil your dinner). If I can find my photo, I'll shoot it to you and perhaps you could post side by side. Thanx again for the great memories, Long.

good vantage point. I like the the fierce prow of the boat
