Well during our week’s mooring at Avoncliff we left the boat
to complete our Cotswold Way walk from Chipping Campden to Bath. This last
section was from Stroud to Bath which we completed at a, fairly leisurely pace,
in 6 days. For the time of year the weather held up reasonably well (better
than the first half of the walk in March in which it snowed and was generally
pretty dire. The Cotswold way is a fairly challenging 102 mile National Trail
but has some pretty good scenery en route (when it isn’t snowing or rainng!!).
We are now back onto the boat moored at Dundas Aqueduct and
slowly making our way towards Bath although watching the weather forecasts
carefully since a severe storm is forecasted for next week and I’d rather be on
a Canal when it hits than on the River Avon which could cause us problems if it
goes into flood.
