Thursday and Friday

 We've had a couple of great days with David and Jacob, friends from home. They stayed at the Wheatsheaf in Crick and met us at the marina each day. 

On Thursday we had a leisurely afternoon sail up to Welford, had a good look round at the lime kilns and the reservoir, followed by supper at the Wharf. 

After that, back to the marina. 

On Friday we had a longer trip up to Foxton Locks. 



This, of course, involved going through Husbands Bosworth Tunnel and six miles of travel on the canal. 



Something new since we last visited, a sculpture trail. 

We walked all round the locks and ended up at Bridge 61 for lunch. 



Two happy sailors 😄



Another statue that I've not seen before. 

After lunch we set off back to the marina and David drove the boat most of the way, even through the tunnel.
