May 25, from Beziers to Colombiers

Previous Entry

The 7 lock staircase of Fonserannes is one of the most interesting and impressive sites of the Canal du Midi.

 

 

Quite a sight when the gates of a lock are opened to flood a chamber!
The lockkeepers ask to have one person on shore. So Gisela is walking with our ropes, Betty handles the aft ropes, Thomas the bow and I drive.

Teamwork in action!

After the hectic locks another quiet stretch of the Canal du Midi.
Target reached! We had planned to reach Colombiers with our teacher.

Sunday evening May 25 - we made it and know much more than two weeks ago.

It rains on the 26th so we stay in Colombiers and wait for better weather to head back towards Agde.
