So here we are on this barge - retired since 2005 and on the waterways of France -with our two dogs (Teddy and Spud)
"Body and Soul"
A British Built Narrow Boat (wide beam)
Lucie, my wife, shown above with Charlie - visiting grand daughter - is a brilliant cook and speaks French fluently and without accent. ( I am glad she agreed to come with us!)
Lucie's postings, now under the heading "Foodie Cruises", are more about her passion for food, wine, family and the “joie de vivre” in general. Believe me, there's plenty of that...
My postings are more anecdotal and come under the heading :
“It isn’t all plain sailing, y’know!”
I mean, one cannot possibly travel thousands of Kilometres on these waterways, together with two dogs, without incident– good, bad or funny – it is these incidents that I try to describe. We hope you will enjoy them too.
