After being home for the month of September we returned to La Rochelle, France and to Sea Rose. We’re anxious to learn whether or not the scheduled work was completed so we can “officially” start our adventurous trip to the Caribbean.  The main project was installing the new “hard top” bimini and as promised, Yacht Concepts delivered on time.

That’s Capt. Glenn in the rain in Santander, Spain. He’s not smiling.

Capt. Glenn is much happier now, let it rain!

We have now repositioned Sea Rose for the early morning bridge opening.

The sun is setting on our last night in La Rochelle.

Our last night in La Rochelle.  Hard to believe we have spent a total of 6 weeks here.

That is the bridge in the background through which we will be exiting in the morning.

It’s morning, the bridge is open and we are on our way.

As the sun rises, we say good-bye to La Rochelle.  Only 4,000 miles to go before we reach our destination, St Lucia.
