You will notice that I am adding a new  “feature” to my blogs. Maybe you have heard about the mobile app called “what3words”. It is a free app that takes  any latitude and longitude coordinates and converts them to 3 simple words that are used to only that specific location in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, the Via Rail station in London GPS coordinates of 42\u00b058’52.6152″N, 81\u00b014’48.6600 are assigned the words: \/\/\/totally.legal.bliss. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These words are much easier to remember than a group of numbers. It is becoming so popular that delivery services and even police and emergency authorities are beginning to recognize and use this app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And now, back to the blog!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bonjour, mes amis!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We started our new adventure at the Via Rail station on York Street in London. Joining us are long time friends Valerie and David. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We are headed to France to spend a few days in Paris & then we will travel south to the Charente River region to cruise for a week on a charter boat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Valerie & David have spent time with us aboard Ananda, our 36 Nauticat and also on Santosha, our 34 Marine Trader so they have a pretty good idea of what to expect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here’s a preview photo of our charter boat:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This is a screenshot from the charter boat company’s website. We pick up the boat on Monday, September 3. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have been planning this trip for about 9 months & it’s hard to believe that it’s finally happening!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the train ride to Toronto we took an overnight flight to Paris, landing on Wednesday morning at 10:00am local time. The flight was uneventful but none of us got very much sleep during the flight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Catch up to you tomorrow!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cheers!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
