Hi to all. Sorry I haven't written but boy have we been busy. We went from Hawaii, to the U.S. to visit my Mother, to Switzerland to pick up our car, to the barge to take it to Toulouse in the South of France.
The new owners, Jon and Diane Rayner, came with us from the port of Buzet to Toulouse, and now the barge is in dry dock at the wishes of the new owner. A few things need to be done which are now in progress. Peter and I are currently staying in a friend's apartment in Toulouse as the barge is un-inhabitable while they are working on it. During the day, we are packing our things in trunks and boxes and suitcases! We have to hire a trailer to take it all to Switzerland.
Internet is a bit of a problem in France. Very expensive unless you are on a 12 month contract with a phone company. Really nice that the apartmeny we are in has free wifi!!
We are well, but a bit sad at leaving the barge. But one door closes and I am sure, another will open.
