Return to Bugbrooke

Today is our last day of cruising along the canals. And what a glorious day it is. It was quite cold overnight but the fire kept the boat nice and cozy. 

Just setting off in bright sunshine. Earlier the canal had been shrouded in mist but that has now all burnt off. 

A panoramic shot of Stoke Bruerne from the middle of the top lock.

Managed to get through the tunnel in 28 minutes this time. Luckily we had no one to follow and only one boat coming the other way.

We decided that it was too nice a day to go straight back to the mooring so we stopped for the afternoon to have lunch and enjoy the sunshine.

Managed to clean some brasswork and attend to a spot of rust around one of the navigation lights. We also did one or two household jobs which will save a bit of time tomorrow when we pack everything up to go home.

A fitting picture to close our holiday blog. We motored back to the marina in time for Strictly and are now back on mains power. 

Thank you for putting up with my ramblings and I hope you will join us next year when we hope to be away for 3 months.

Watch this space!
