Thanks to
all who commented on the facebook post – evidently it worked. Not something I’m
used to. This seems a bit easier and won’t clutter up anyone’s newsfeed with
unwanted stuff.
On specific
comments – yes Claudia, we will try to do pix, but we are using a 3G dongle for
wifi connection, paying by the amount of data up or downloaded, so it may have
to wait until we find a free wifi. I will also try to put up a map today.
Good comments
from Roger – we have seen lots of cyclists along the way, and being Tour de
France time, many, shall we say more mature, gentlemen are recovering their
youth in brightly coloured lycra. Your
comments on the Rhine are certainly apposite. We have done the upper part, south
of Strasbourg, a couple of times, once with a very strong current: extremely
slow upstream, and an adrenaline rush downstream. I think the Rhine gorge could
be a bit like that. Certainly when one gets out onto the Rhine, we feel very
small – the locks, the barges, the current and everything. Should be fun.
Today was
an easy trip up to L’Isle sur le Doubs, to give it its full name, in bright
sunshine. One lock played up and we had to wait an hour for a somewhat louche
young eclusier to appear and fix it. Nowhere to tie up, so lunch on the move.
Here's the map
