Time to start a new blog - where have we been this Winter so far.....

Temujin is tucked up nice and warm at the junction of two canals in Champagne-Ardennes. Here, at Conde-sur-Marne, we still see occasional passing commercial peniches, busy earning a living transporting all sorts of cargo to and from the area - or just passing through!

I thought I'd show you some pictures of the local area. Here are a few photos of the Champagne area taken last Autumn:-
