After checking the weather forecast
for the next few days we decided to just do a day trip to Knokkebrug, to test
the engine, and come back to the marina for the weekend which is going to be
cold, windy and rainy – it must be Easter!
We set off for Knokkebrug at about 11.00.
Untying the lines
Inching away from the dock
Pulling into the stream
The engine ran sweet as a nut, and
quiet as a sleeping baby. Now we just
hear the woosh, woosh of water out the exhaust.
But it looks like we have little mannekin pis stowaway, actually it is the anti-syphon vent.
Wintry scenes. It was rather nippy.
The iBoost external directional antenna
(wi-fi extender with router, we can connect all our gadgets to the internet at
the same time!). Wonderful
invention!
Knokkebrug
After we stopped I made a pot of
veggie soup for lunch.
On the way back I finally managed to
get a photo of the house with a flower garden on the ridge of the roof. From
spring to late summer it is in bloom, now you can just see the spears of the
bulbs appearing, they’ll be flowering soon.
Today I bought a new pair of deck shoes
At 6.99 they were a bargain so I went
back and got a second pair!
Just beginning to rain.
