This is the story of the start of this year's cruise, leaving the Canal du Midi in France and heading North up the river Rhone (which many people told us couldn't be done with such a slow vessel as a narrowboat) so here's the story.....

Tuesday 14th July 2009 La Roche-de-Glun. Rhone

20.8°C overnight minimum - very hot and sticky. We had the day off as it was Bastille Day, a national holiday and we assumed the locks were closed. Another yacht arrived and filled the gap in front of us on the pontoon. We’d seen a few others moving and a couple of commercials so we thought that maybe the locks were not actually closed for Bastille Day. Still very hot after dark. The boat was still bouncing about (as it had been most of the day) from the wash of speed boats and jetskis.
