Our family rented, piloted, and slept on a 13 meter canal boat for a week in Burgundy. We traveled 90 kilometers up the Canal
du Nivernais, through about 50 locks, 6 drawbridges, and some of the most beautiful countryside and villages we have ever
seen. There were four of us from California, Brian, Julie, Patrick (age 10), Christopher (age 6), and Evie (Julies
mom) from Dallas. We thought that this would be a vacation that we would remember forever, and we were right! These
pages try to capture at least part what we saw, did, and felt. You will find this site a combination of a diary, guide, photo
album, and general overview of canal boat vacations. To our friends we are trying to share what our family experienced. To
others we hope that this will give you an idea of what you could expect from a similar vacation.
