Along with 20 others, I’m currently canal cruising in France. The 22-guest Anne-Marie is taking us from Sete to Arles. Ten of us also participated in a four-day pre-tour from Paris through the Perigord region of France to Sete. Our journey ends on Wednesday, and I’ll be posting a  story about our adventure next week. For now, I’m posting a few photos to give you a sense of what our trip has been like so far.

That’s it for now. I’ll be posting more next week when our journey concludes.
