| Lock, bridge, and June |
Francis was passing. Its 3 days to the sea in that direction, he said, pointing to where the boat had come from. I have no better information than that at this moment, and he offered no proof.

Walking in Vitry
This is the other part of the canal. And as we approached we noticed the yellow light flashing on the lock in the distance. Since the water was still pouring over the top of the gates, there was still a full lock. It gave us time to reach the bridge next to it as the gates closed at the other end.
Just as we arrived the water stopped flowing over the top of the nearside gates. We watched as the water emptied and the boat was driven out of the lower water. Then as the lock closed and refilled. Although it appeared to be quick to us, if you have to negotiate lots of them I suspect you take a different view.
