Moored at Wilmcote

Even got me in the pic, finger bottom left!

Well we have been making good progress along the canal. We stopped on Wednesday to call in at Wedges, a bakery near Hockley Heath where we had an all day breakfast which was every bit as good as the last time we called there.  Thursday was a busy day working down 16 locks. Half way down we met friends Dave and Jan on Yes Dear who were on their way up. With no where to stop and a line of boats we arranged to meet half way that evening in The Boot. A pub conveniently located mid flight. A very pleasant evening it was too.
So Friday saw us moving on to the South Stratford Canal, new water for us. It is a very rural canal, cruising amongst the trees with the sun shining through. We did at one point pass under the M40, you can just see a van going over the bridge.
Still several locks but more spaced out for a while so I get back on board rather than walking all the way!
Moored at Wilmcote now and off later today to visit a friend who doesn't live far from Stratford.
