Well we are now into our first ‘proper’ night on board Rune
in preparation to leaving the Marina tomorrow morning and heading North towards
Julia’s sister in Leicester. It actually feels quite strange that something
that has been so many years in the planning has now come to fruition and we are
now going to experience what life on the ‘Cut’ is actually like. Hopefully the
very good weather that we have recently experienced will continue for the start
of our travels around the system.
At the moment we are in Yelvertoft Marina and, if all goes
according to plan, by tomorrow night we should be along the Welford Arm and in
the village of Welford about 10 miles north of here. There don’t seem to be
many challenges between here and there, only the single lock on the Welford arm
to get us back into the mindframe of ‘locking’. That will be in preparation for
the Foxton Locks as we make our way towards Leicester (2 Staircase locks in
rapid succession). Will try to collect some photos on the way to attach to the blog.
