Not such a wild and woolly day


We left a very peaceful mooring on a bright gentle day
 at a much more reasonable hour than of late!
We didn't want to arrive in Cropredy too early.  We needed to give people chance to vacate mooring spaces!
Barney loves lying in long grass
Luckily for him CRT seem to maintaining their policy of NOT cutting the grass along the towpaths and at the locks.   Not so lucky for those of us who are walking.

I often wonder what the cows are thinking!!! 
Some of them are quite curious as we pass by

Safely moored up we have some smaller visitors
I have learnt not to sit too close to the edge when parent swans are around
There was room for us at the top of Cropredy lock but its only 24 hour stay, so will probably move down below the lock tomorrow.

Total distance:2.07 miles Elapsed time:1h38m49s Locks:4Bridges:5 
Average speed:1.26 mph (3.68 lock/mph)
