Having checked the weather, Saturday (6/6), it looked a today to set off for Honfleur which is about an hour up the mouth of the Seine and gives a good starting point to take the river up to Rouen. We set off about 10am, the sea was slight but the boat at times really rocked and rolled from side to side with some of the bigger waves, wouldn't like to be demasted in a heavy sea, it felt like the worst kind of theme park ride.
Arrived at Honfleur and entered the lock (no incidents this time) about noon. We tied up against the wall to wait for the inner basin entry time (4.30pm) so had a bit of lunch and went to explore part of the town. We are now in a lovely berth in the inner basin and have great views of the town from our bedroom and the galley.
