We got back to Carcassonne around midday and the boat was feeling a bit empty and quiet with the boys having left to go back home; therefore we decided to make a move onwards, eventually arriving at Trebes for the night where we tied up opposite the “Le Boat” hire depot. It’s very hard not to hold your breath at times, when total novices start manoeuvring their 40ft+ hire boats in such close proximity to Sun Dog.
Trebes is a lovely town with restaurants right on the side of the Canal. Here we met Barry and Kath off “Angelique” a retired English couple who have been living aboard their boat for the last five years, and we had a good old natter before Sara and I headed off to bed early as we were both really tired.
