Back on the water

Reedbed Barge
After a busy week away we returned to Falcon on Sunday. Monday after returning the hire car we left the marina, and after spending another night at Saul Junction, on Tuesday we headed back to Gloucester Docks. We had intended to spend 2 nights there but as the weather forecast for today was wet we left again on Wednesday afternoon. Passed this barge several times now planted out with reeds. There are several abandoned hull hulks along the canal. Last night we stayed again at Saul but this time on the North side of the junction.  Moving on this morning, the forecast was right and we did get wet, but not too bad! We are now moored at Shepherd's Patch. Near to Slimbridge Wetland Center and the Tudor Caravan Site. Tomorrow we hope to meet with Alison and Gill who are coming in their motor homes. The picture below is across from our mooring. Note the lovely sail boat, and the roller blind effect of the clouds!
