Second to the last lock

Lorenzo started a sauce for the mussels for our dinner.  But it was not done yet when we went through this lock so he was holding his stern line and stirring the sauce too.  Multi tasking over here boss.

We were all getting pretty excited to be moving onto our next adventure.  This would be our last night on the boat. 



There were a lot more locks than we expected, and not as much time as we thought to explore the little towns along the way.  But it was fun and now we know certain things we would do differently the next time.  And as much fun as we had, pretty sure there will be a next time.  Yippee!!!

While the water was blowing into the lock the boat started hopping around so Lozo had to tend to his lines.  His sauce was bubbling so he called to me to stir it for him, but i think he tricked me, cause he was taking this picture of ME multi tasking.  Pay no attention to the glass of wine in my hand.  We were almost done for the day.


After all that at the end of the evening I have to say this was the highlight of our meal.  It was 4 lbs of mussels in white wine, garlic, fresh tomato and assorted herbs.  This was a larger glass dish than it looked.  There was not one mussel left when we were done.  Sorry Maggie.
