It has a lovely feel about it, a classic auberge lines the far quay, a pretty church tower signals the village center and the quay provides stone picnik tables and chairs which we take advantage of under the arbour of a tree enjoying tea and biscuits.Ĥ rather gaily painted lifting bridges as we near the city center in busy rush hour, we get priority and its a bit embarrassing but somehow satisfying in a naughty sort of way to watch the faces of the hacked off car commuters sat in long lines of citroens and renaults coughing fumes and a heady mix of booming radio sounds whilst regarding Doucette with nothing but frustration and angst.

With huge relief we continue thankfully incident free through 10 more locks arriving at the gorgeous basin and quay at St Julien sur Dheune. It really could have been disastrous darling! She had then gone and changed her shorts as she felt chilly and had remembered only as she came back up from the cabin that she had left the knife in the shorts.
What made it even more lucky had been the fact that Collette who hates having such a sharp knife in her pocket had forgotten to pick it up after lunch but the first lock wall had a split in it and she had retrieved it from the wheelhouse fearing the rope getting caught in the split. It had been a very close escape and a real wake up call. With over a 1500 locks experience, we had got complacent and the lock gave us a proper kick up the backside. Thank god I had splashed out on an expensive knife, it had paid for itself in that one second. The knife goes through it like butter and Doucette slumps down into the still emptying lock. If it gives, god knows? I slash at the straining rope. I scream cut the rope, Collette is frozen, wheres your knife, its in my pocket, well get it out, i grab it off her and roughly push her clear of the screaming cleat. Unbelievably the floating bollard does not go down as far as the water level. I leap salmon like down from the poop already aware of the craking of the tension on the cleat. We drop surprisingly quickly and suddenly Collette lets out a shriek. We enter the second lock and Collette cleats off on the floater. A cross boats joke with Nick and Pam that we can cleat off and make a cup of tea in the next lock with floaters. To achieve that goal, you may choose one of the two available campaigns: will you become an Adventurer or a Trader? For the first time in the acclaimed Port Royale series, you are not alone in the beautiful and seemingly so peaceful seas of the Caribbean.At last we were on the descent, easy locks! Locks are generally closely spaced near summits and 8 in 4kms would see us at St Julien sur Dheune and more good news after the first lock is that these 5m locks had floating bollards. And there you are, a young sea captain whose only goal is to become the most powerful man in the New World. The mighty kingdoms of Spain, England, France and the Netherlands fight over the colonies.
