Welton



Here I am Rune
Distance 2.9 miles
Total 1774 Locks 87 Tunnels
Running total mileage 2554.8 miles

Deliberately a short day today as the weather forecast for the afternoon was rubbish so we just moved out of Braunston, up through the locks and tunnel and moored up again to let the belt of rain pass over. The rest of the week’s weather looks pretty reasonable and hopefully it will start to warm up a bit, particularly now we are into May.

No great dramas for the trip, we managed to double up with another boat in the 2nd lock out of Braunston which speeded things up a little for, the other boat was on a bit of a mission though since they need to be in Paddington Basin by Friday, that sounds like some hard work to me!
Haven’t decided where we hope to get to by tomorrow, we see how progress goes, we still have plenty of time for our intended schedule.
