Tuesday 11 June
A deliberately long day off to break the back of the remaining distance to Paris covering just over 100 km and 3 locks in just under 12 hours, stopping eventually at a free mooring in Bougival, just up from the lock. We had to share the lock with a smallish barge that entered after us, but as we discovered, the lock keeper wanted us behind it in the lock, so we had to reverse up, but in doing so managed to do a complete 360 in a lock only a few feet wider than the length Jacana. Fortunately no damage other than a scraped solar panel.
Tomorrow Paris.
