On track again!

After three days of strong wind, the Mistral, we decided this morning to move on again. We left Viviers early around 07.00 AM. The wind was still quite strong but the engine had no problem to take us in a fairly good speed up to the marina in Valance, about 50 km upstream. We have now made 200 of the 2000 km to Travemunde :-). The photos are from Avignon to Viviers.

just before the Avignon lock.

Hanna is talking to the Bollene lock keeper. Bollene lock is the highest lock on Rhone - 22 meters!
