It's Been A While

We have been away for a week wild camping in the motorhome down to Cornwall and the west country.  This is wild camping at its best. 


In line with our love of canals a visit to the famous Caen Flight of locks was on the agenda.

This is my picture of the site.



Before we went I ordered a load of stuff which has now started to arrive.

So far delivered and collected are:- New battery box fiberglassed, kitchen and bathroom taps, bathroom sink, hob, integral microwave comi oven, washing machine, fridge freezer, the TV unit, the internal door handles, door glass,  and the power cables for the.

So I will be getting on with installing all this new kit in the next few days.

  1. Looks like a nice vacation Kev. How many locks are in that flight? Reminds me of locks 1-8 on the Rideau Canal at Ottawa.

    Your widebeam boat would be right at home in the Rideau Canal system. I often dreamed of building one like yours but it just wasn't in the finances.

    Just for comparison this is what a St. Lawrence Seaway lock looks like.

    Looking forward to seeing you get back to the boat project. Take care.
