The journey from Trent to Frankfort was probably the most meh we have encounter, nothing bad, just nothing exciting to see along the way. For the first time, it felt like we were commuting from point A to point B. However, once we completed the 6 Nautical Mile journey that took three and half hours with 5 locks with were rewarded with beautiful night of peace and tranquilly at the bottom of Lock 5 near Frankfort.
blah cruise
