So here we are back on the canal. Good positive comments about the blog with the good suggestion that we include a map. Photos will all be with ipad despite trying numerous wire/ connectors at home.

I had thought about it but wasn't sure that a picture would be clear. Here is my try! 

So far we have travelled from the Marina which is just north of Burton on Trent, South West to Fradley and then north to Stoke. You can see the Caldon with its two branches to Leek and Froghall going off to the East.

Today we returned to the boat which we had left in a Marina at Etruria. What a lovely time we had in Wales and the great weather continues. We left the marina at 4pm after a pump out and just cruised for about an hour and a half buying diesel on the way. Our mooring is at Westport Lake - a lovely nature reserve. Unfortunately the visitors centre was closed but we may catch it on the return journey.
