"
Magnifique!
" he shouted.

"It is a great impression of Paris, a brilliant use of color and light.

I will give you one hundred euros for it."

Dodsworth and the duck were thrilled.

They went and had a splendid breakfast.

Giant hot air balloons started floating overhead.

"Now, that looks like a fun way to celebrate," said Dodsworth.

The duck agreed.

They went to the hot air balloon field.

They climbed in a balloon and were soon sailing over Paris.

As the wind changed, and as the balloon started floating away toward England, Dodsworth and the duck said "
Au revoir
" and toasted to the City of Lights.
