Today’s the day. Breakfast. Life jacket practice. Motorbike loaded. Kids onboard. Engine started and then we waved farewell to our maritime neighbours through the haze we had created and once the worst of the resulting blue fog had lifted we set off down the River Saone.
It was good to be back on the river and moving again and the smiles on our faces said it all.
Everything was going well until we were manoeuvring into the lock at Seurre and lost the use of the bow thruster thanks to a cooling problem with the generator. However, Andy kept Lobelia under control and efficiently changed the impeller as soon as we were through the lock.
