First log – April 2, 2010

A long winter, a little elbow grease, (Thank you Van Swaay team) and the boat is ready for the canals and further adventures. Ken and I have spent the past week and half getting the boats final prep completed. It is ready, the boat looks great, and tonight we hit our first lock for an early long-haul to Gent. We will spend Sunday in Gent and then continue through the Belgium canals. Along the way we will search for our link to the world (Internet) and of course, I will take many pictures. Sorry this first one is so uninteresting, but more flavor to come!
