On the Road to Calais

Did you ever have ‘one of those days’? Of course, you have. And today was definitely ‘one of those days’ for us. It seems the closer we get to Canterbury, the more challenges we encounter.

A Heatwave, a Day in Arras and a Respite

We figure we’re being challenged on the last few days of our trek what with the heatwave and now the foul weather … the gods need to make sure we’ve really earned the right to say we’ve walked the Via Francigena. Perhaps, Sigeric the Serious is watching from on high.

Just a Little Further

Hi there and welcome to Just A Little Further!

We are David and Marcie Lynn and we've lived aboard our Liberty 458 cutter-rigged sailboat since 2000.

What began as an urge to travel slowly and economically at our own pace ended up an adventure of a lifetime.  

Well, here we are ... nearly 90,000 miles under the keel, 5 continents, 5 Great Southern Capes, 36 countries and almost two decades later, still taking one passage at a time and going just a little further.
