Another gentle days cruising

Map Reference SP 64400 80936
Distance Travelled 1.5 Miles

Another day of gentle cruising taking us only about 1.5 miles into the village of Welford. Excellent Sunday lunch at The Wharf public house followed by a walk around the local reservoirs. One point of interest of these reservoirs is that,unlike most reservoirs they are not for local water supply but to feed  the canal, so without them we would grind to a halt.

Tomorrow we press on North towards Leicester hopefully passing through Husbands Bosworth tunnel and the famed Foxton Locks, looks like it might be a bit more of a challenge than today, all dependant upon the weather, which at the moment does not look too promising
