The cruise continues


Well we have a good day today fine and sunny so we have cruised from Sutton Stop to Newbold on Avon and the good news the lights in the tunnel at Newbold are all working. We arrived at Newbold late afternoon and found a mooring on the 14 day moorings which was a stroke of good luck because when you have a 70' boat its quite hard to find the space .Tomorrow it will be a cruise to Rugby and the we can top up the food supplies ready for the final leg of our journey to Debdale Wharf Marina.
