Maybe we were subconsciously trying to delay the end of our trip, but we seemed a bit slow to get going this morning. However, it was another bright sunny day, and we actually still got under way before 9.
The five miles back to our marina usually take an hour and a half, and they did today -- we were slowed only by two large fishing matches. I seem to have taken only two photos.
At the marina, Briar Rise seemed very reluctant to slip into her berth -- I like to think she would rather have kept going! But once we were moored up, we quickly sorted things out, packed up the car, and hit the road. We had to go first to Calcutt to collect Adrian's car, then we headed home. We've spent the afternoon putting the house back together, as the decorator has been in while we've been away, painting a couple of rooms.
5 miles, 0 locks. (340 miles, 269 locks)

It was good to meet you both yesterday. We really enjoyed your company. Thanks for the tip about fuel prices at Rugby Boats. We stopped there this afternoon; while conducting boat sales they were also able to sell diesel at an affordable price!

Sounds like you've had a good trip. You have probably used up all the good weather leaving the rain to start when we do.
