Sailing down the locks on 29th August 2008

These pictures were taken in Bézier on 29th August 2008 at 'Les 9 écluses'. They show the whole trip of the ship going down 9 locks.

During the trip, the lock was exclusivly used by this ship. When she had passed all locks, the yachts could continue to make use of the system.
