And she's off!

This morning, June 1, hubby and I went back to Lock 9 to get pictures of the Onrust as she left Lock 9 on her way to New York City.

It was a COLD morning with a stiff wind off of the water but activity was high and people were on hand to see her and her passengers and crew off. There were even a couple of musicians with an accordian and a concertina to add to the festival atmosphere. The mast was not up as the ship has to pass through a few locks yet so unfortunately, I missed that opportunity. You can see a couple of photos of her with her sail up on their web page however. Enjoy!
