Well another week has gone by and we are now at
Devises. On the way we have visited
Hungerford, Great Bedwyn and Crofton, where there is an old beam engine that
used to pump the water up to the summit,( it still does at certain times of the
year,) and Pewsey. We travelled through some very rural parts of Wiltshire,
some of which we were very glad that we didn’t meet another boat it was sooo
narrow! We have now completed just over
half of the locks from Reading to Bristol.
We have been enjoying the lovely sunshine, but at the moment there are
signs of rain! Ah well it was good while
it lasted. In front of us now are 29
locks in 4 miles, which include the Caen Hill Flight. We walked down yesterday to have a look and
the view down over is amazing. Think
coffee is called for before we start.
Just looked at the Caen Flight and you are going down hill. When will you do the Flight and what next.
