We’ve come out for what will, almost certainly, be our last cruise for this year, albeit only into Birmingham. Like my earlier trip to Merry Hill, the day was ideal for a autumn/winter cruise, sunny, dry although a bit chilly. The forecast over the next few days isn’t so good, but I think it picks up again by Friday, so hopefully we’ll get a pleasant cruise back again.

There were no dramas of any sort on the way into Birmingham, I think I’m getting to know the route particularly well when I can spot that the graffitti on the way has changed!

We’ll have a look around the Birmingham Christmas Market over the next few days, and any other little excursions that we may fancy.
