On to the Barge

We transferred to our mobile home for the next seven days.

We will traverse the Canal du Midi on the Enchante’. We boarded late Sunday afternoon. The barge started cruising once we initially settled.

We got underway and immediately ventured through a series of locks. Maneuvering the locks is a learned skill.

Each tight as a drum.

Some required a head duck to prevent premature beheading.

But each raised our barge just as it has for centuries.

Eventually we moored for the evening, a walk at dusk, and dinner.

  1. Enjoy your trip. We are celebrating my 70th in the Dordogne- beautiful. Kathy Kaye, Phyllis Kopriva , Susan Kuntz and I are having such fun. Too bad our paths won’t cross.
