This morning we woke to the serenity of Huy and as the sun rose over the nuclear power station we let go lines to continue up the Meuse.
Today we entered two very large locks. The first with two big cargo ships, the second we were alone. The bollards in the big locks are about 20m apart making it difficult to tie up a 14m boat.
We stopped in Namur just after lunch and took a walk around the city, visiting a laundromat along the way to do the weekly wash. While we walked we noticed signs advertising a circus was in town.
The circus was up on top of a big fortified hull, so we wandered through the fort snd castle making our way to the circus. We passed some wonderful scriptures along the way and the views were amazing
We all loved Festival Du Circue Namur. Nobody could choose the best acts from the acrobats, pony’s, trampolines, tight rope walkers jumping through fire hoops, the amazing acts just kept coming!
