Our last trip on the boat. Sigh ....We've had a very late Winter this year and been experiencing absolutely terrible weather so it was with great trepidation and lots of coats, gloves and hats that we set out on Saturday, up and back to Little Venice for the last time.
We took a group of friends along for the ride, some of them veterans, and others new to the experience.
The weather was kind to us and we made it all the way through the four locks and safely to a pub for lunch without getting wet. On the way home we were met with relentless drizzle but thankfully no downpours.Nate slept both there and back, first on my shoulder at the back of the boat, and later on Bec's lap.
It would have been nice for our last trip to have been on a sun drenched day, with lush green surrounds rather than the grey winter landscape but unfortunately we've had the last of our Summer days on Papillon.What next? A yacht on the Mediterranean? That could work.

From the bottom photo one wonders how you managed to make it home for so long as a threesome. However I do know that you are both most resourceful and creative and were able to utilise every bit of space while still making it very much a home. You should be most proud of the work that you put into the Papillon over the past three years.
I know the grass is always greener, but oh what I would do for one of your overcast days!
