Cottage at Ivinghoe Lock built the year my Dad was born
Duck there's a bridge..... what duck I can't see a duck
Well we seem to be in the routine of 3 locks per day.  Along with 2 or three miles, just enough to get our batteries back up.  Yesterday was lovely and sunny and the locks were full, which as we are travelling downhill is just the way we want them.  Today however all three were empty.  Just means it takes a bit longer as we have to wait for them to fill.  These are big locks too, room for 2 boats but there doesn’t seem to be anyone to share with at the moment!  We did see one moving boat today, but that was after we had moored.  The pictures are from yesterday as we were going down through Ivinghoe Locks.  Took a picture of the cottage as it was built in the same year my Dad was born.  The locks are older though with dates around the 1870’s.  Shopping in Leighton Buzzard tomorrow.
