Bridge 103 - Wolfhall Bridge on the Kennet and Avon

Sunday/Monday, 13th and 14 July 2014

Friday and Saturday evening Pete enjoys getting his tackle out.....

How big?

That's more like it!!

After a lazy Saturday where the family walk along the Roman Road to Wilton Windmill and have lunch in The Swan, we move on.

Wilton Windmill

Crofton Mooring

Shame to leave the pretty moorings here but they are only 48 hours maximum.  After the first lock we queue for water.  Susan and Mazey are on the wrong side of the lock, so they sit for nearly an hour waiting patiently to re-join us.  She said that she enjoyed watching the Swifts dive bombing in to the canal for food and water.

Susan and Mazey walk the mile and complete the 6 locks fairly easily.  The only downside is that Pete seems to be attacked by the huge horseflies.........

Pete finds us a pretty mooring prior to bridge 103 (Wolfhall Bridge) - mooring amongst the nettles again!!

Mooring in the nettles - again!!

The family go for local walks to seek out photo opportunities.  Pete sees a Barn Owl and Susan sees a lot of bugs - even an orange ladybird.

I think we are moving again tomorrow.  Come back and you will find out.

Bye for now.

Total 1 mile and 6 locks
