Hi bloggers, I expect you thought there would be no more boating adventures, wrong! This is just to show you the boat Jon has been working on all summer, we flew to Nice, after a security scare at Manchester Airport when 3 people were removed from an Abu Dhabi flight (say no more)anyway, we arrived st Nice not too delayed and Johnny met us and we took the train to Juan les Pins where our hotel was, and very posh it was too. The next day, after a quick dip in the med, much warmer than St Malo, we had a conducted tour of Dilbar. Absolutely amazing. 110m long, it was the biggest yacht in the harbour, everything gleamed on it. We went right from the helicopter landing pad, through the control room, don't know what else you would call it, the bit where the boat is steered from anyway, it looked like the starship enterprise, to the engine room, it took over 3 hours! Better not put all my interior photos on the blog in case Jon gets into trouble!

After that we walked around the marina grandbanks spotting, there were loads there! Some as old as Rowena, but of course not in such good condition at least that's what Paul told me.
