The End of our 2019 Season

So, here we are at the end of our 2019 season.

On Monday we travelled from Gayton to Stowe Hill in the dry but with rain setting in at lunchtime we stayed put for the afternoon. Another cosy afternoon in front of the fire and a good book!

Our journey to Braunston was trouble free in the company of two different boats. It  is always good to share these big double locks with heavy gates. The weather was dull but the rain stayed off.

We have spent our last couple of nights on the water at our favourite moorings, one of which is south of Braunston , and the other is in the 'wilderness' between Napton and Fenny, where  we have been treated to a beautiful sunset across these vast open skies.

We head into Fenny Marina tomorrow morning after a very mixed season which has left us with some interesting memories. We have travelled through 550 locks and clocked up 360 engine hours since we set off at the end of April and today Hunters Moon clocked up 5000 engine hours.
