Last day on Llangollen

July 22nd, 2009 No comments

Weather was odd yesterday, started off as just fine spitting and worked it’s way up to a really heavy shower. Typically it stopped and the sun came out just before we stopped for the night.
We are aiming for the Shroppie Fly today (/me waves at tje) apparently there is a hint of blue sky outside so might get a days cruising in without getting wet.
Anyway I can smell bacon and black pudding cooking, mmmmm breakfast.

Moored at Jack Mytton last night, it’s a bar / restaurant and very good food. So nice that we are considering stopping here again tonight after we have turned at Trefor.

Today we have 2 tunnels and 2 aqueducts, there are only 2 locks on this last bit of the Llangollen canal.

Holiday 2009

As expected the rain has stopped and the sky is getting lighter by the minute. Ducks fed already….

Nice long days cruising, now moored on Llangolen canal, rain for only about an hour today something tells me that tomorrow will be a little more wet.

We spent the last hour giving locking and handling instruction to several Alvechurch hire boats, seems they all were sent out with zero instruction.
