What a marvelous day for our travels to begin. It couldn't be better and I made the most of the sunny weather by doing 3 wash loads before we had even reached Branston Lock and the water point. I did start the machine early and at one point left the engine running, locked up the boat, and went for a quick look at the model motorboat racing at the lake in the park.

By 11am, and after tea and cake with the Dennis and Margaret, we pulled pins and headed for Alrewas. I must say it felt good to know we were on our way at last, not that I haven't enjoyed the month at the park, but a change of scenery was needed and Alrewas was a good a place as any for that.
