Wednesday 26th August

The Last Day!
After more rain overnight there was a lull so Graham mopped out the bilges while I went off to buy the paper. We were ready to go when I returned but the rain started again so we had coffee and finally set off at 11.30am when the weather cheered up.
It was a clear run back to the Marina with few difficult points- one being getting through the narrow bridge on a curve at Alrewas river section.


The design on this boat was stunning but doesn't show up well in the photo.


Back safely in the Marina with evidence of our Summer Holiday.


Not sure how much is suntan and how much is rust!

Some stats.

We spent 53 nights on board.
Travelled 366 miles
Worked 248 locks - thanks to friends and family who helped us.

Time to sort out the boat, hope the car starts, pack up and travel home on Friday.

Over the Winter we can get the books out again to plan next year's adventures.
