Valence d'Agen to Agen

Sunday, 11 October

After a breakfast of coffee or chocolate and a croissant in Valence D'Agen we started our last day of sailing back to Agen. A cool start to the day but it soon warmed up.

We came through Pommevic where the trees by the canal were just as lovely as last time, stopped near a lock for lunch and stopped again at the same little cafe where we sat under umbrellas last time.

By 5.30 we were in Agen and squeezing into a very tight berth. We celebrated the end of the trip with a bottle of champagne and a long walk to a restaurant which had a radio theme. Absolutely exhausted by the time we got back, so a cup of tea and bed.

For those who were in Agen on the last boat trip you will be interested to know that the renovations to the station are complete and very impressive. Also there is a new ramp and even a lift to the bridge which takes you across the tracks.
