We braved our first tunnel and enjoyed motoring on the somewhat more peaceful Marne. After a while we stopped at the last good fuelling pontoon on this leg of the journey only to be caught up by Paul and Carol. They weren't heading as far as us today but it was nice to motor in company for a while. As we came to the next lock Paul and Carol headed off to the marina they wanted to spend the night only to emerge very shortly after as it was too shallow... we were now both heading for Langly.
We spent a little time checking the bilge pump and very shortly Carol popped by with a bus timetable for Disney. I decided to take a walk to check taxi prices as the last bus back was a bit late, but the earlier one was too early for the fireworks. I got distracted and found free kids activities in a park so hot footed it back to the boat to get the kids.
We spent a pleasant hour and a half at the park, shooting arrows, building, and playing, before heading back to the boat for tea and hopefully an early night ready for Disney tomorrow. Luckily Paul and Carol are staying tomorrow too so will keep an eye on Laurin and the dodgy sea cock for us as they are coming and going.
A beautiful evening in a beautiful place!
