Enfield Lock



Here I am Rune
Distance 10.2 miles
Total 1913Locks 90 Tunnels
Running total mileage 2708.4 miles

Didn’t quite make it to Waltham Abbey but Enfield Lock is probably as good as, missed it by only 2 miles. Once again it has been a stonkingly hot day today with very little wind, I’ll be interested as to what the Met Office say the temperature has been but it has definitely been in the high 20’s. Covered ourselves with sun cream and it seem to have worked as I don’t seem to have any areas of sunburn.
I have to say that the trip through Tottenham and Walthamstow wasn’t as bad as anticipated, but that seems to be the case on the canals, we’ve passed through a number of areas that have poor reputations and found them to be quite pleasant. From here on however we start to re-enter the countryside proper (pass under the M25 first thing tomorrow) so it wont be an illusion of countryside, it’ll be the real  thing!
