After two years without flying, getting back to the drone is not easy, especially since I constantly express to Amélie my negative feeling of having to do it and inflict such discipline on myself... It was planned for the year past but like everyone else, we weren't able to travel.
I asked Israfil & Tarja to come to the beach to take pictures of the departure but they are too busy, a little disappointed we leave without holding it against them, however this reunion seems unfinished to us.... Besides the champagne is always chilled...
It is hot and the nights do not drop below 25°, it is a heat wave since a heat dome has been in place over Scandinavia since the beginning of June, as over Canada, and the water of the lakes is lukewarm, it's incredible, we have never bathed so much as this year.
We take advantage of this departure between father and daughter, fully aware of what we are going to experience. But instead of heading north as planned, we headed south and left to join the Saimaa to enjoy its dream bivouacs before returning to the campsite to collect the missing belongings, then finally heading north.
The big canoe is heavy, massive, and it seems to want to impose itself on the force that I try to transmit to it. He physically constrains me and I didn't expect it at this point.
Amelie sets off with her canoe, which she already knows well, her desire to paddle exists, because each time I challenge her on its legitimacy, she sends me warnings that leave me in no doubt as to her motivation.
Our relationship is so unique and strong. I hadn't even imagined that a father-daughter relationship could be reassuring.
Each departure remains engraved in our memories as a marker of the time that has passed, this year we take away the misery of our doubts because we have to enroll Amelie in a high school before July 7, but I refuse to comply with the injunctions of the Academy, so we are awaiting their response to my missive sent the day before.
The solar panel is too far away to serve as a runway, so you also have to catch it by hand!
As soon as I catch it, I immediately rock it forward with a sharp blow, and it goes out!

After 7 km we take our first break! It's very hot and we have to rediscover that casual and wandering behavior of taking the time to hug him, and dance with him at a rhythm that suggests he slow down.
It's complicated to love your daughter, because I had to sacrifice so much of myself, and yet it's without any regrets.
Enough is enough ! but we will become aware of this blunder as time goes by.
After 17 kilometers we impose our bivouac. The heat abuses us like candles and although we play sports all year round, getting back to life in a canoe means challenging ourselves every day.
The next morning, pissing, the owner of the place rushes to make sure that we do not make fire, all of Finland is on maximum fire alert, he then notices that we have gas to cook and welcomes us on his land.
He really picks us up when he wakes up, so I tell him "SupervagabondS" to discover us on his smartphone.
I was convinced that we were going to be yelled at one way or another, but on the contrary, he welcomes us and I feel stupid talking, just dressed in boxer shorts in front of him !

His house is not so far from the tent, or rather the reverse!
But as long as everyone remains invisible to the other and we don't make noise, life can go on peacefully.

It is at this bivouac that we learn that Amélie obtained her certificate with 640 points out of 800 and the mention "Very good"... So how can we refuse her assignment to the Lycée de Treguier?!
This question torments us, haunts us, every day we think about it and what we feel as an injustice gnaws at us, but we know it, so everyone adapts and waits for time to pass.
Amélie is not fooled and understands that the school system is only a selection of the best students, but as she has chosen to study and made the necessary efforts to be a good student, she does not accept not getting what she deserves.
And I her father, I support her, I galvanize her, I revolt her, I make her hear the words that support her indignation and her disgust at not feeling considered for all the efforts she has made over the past four years. .
This fight is ours.
This fight is ours.
Even if necessary, our trip will be polluted by this rage to win, it is a question of teaching dignity.
You cannot learn anything without having to struggle, whereas the essential is forgotten without any effort.
My daughter, you know how upset I was to feel unable to resolve everything as you would have wished and that our pain was the most difficult thing to share.
But it's not our culture to feel sorry for ourselves. Plus, two of us take on the extra weight and it eases the burden.
After a single navigation our organization is not yet optimal, we still need time to readapt to life in a canoe that I see as a "Lifestyle" to end my life.
