A day on the canal
Day 23: Sunday, May 21, 2023
A perfect day on the Mittelland canal
Starting out at 0600 - almost alone on the canal. We just had to overtake a barge, and then we rode the uspoiled morning waters, listening to the early morning birds (and there are a lot of them). Please see our video from this morning in our YouTube canal: Saga Asia 2023.
The temperature is rising
This afternoon the temperature rose, and we had to seek shade. This gave us the opportunity to test out our new "bikinitop" for the helms-position. Using the bars from the winch and a stick harvested from the riverbank, we now have nice shade aft in the ship. And we managed over 100 kilometres this day!
