Day 12 - Foxton to Market Harborough

Sunday 14th August

5.5 miles

Entering Market Harborough basin
A quiet, pleasant cruise into Market Harborough meeting our first fishing match of the trip.

Turned in the basin and moored on the towpath rather than pay £10 for a pontoon in the basin.












Church and Old Grammar School
Walked into town, very nice especially the Old Grammar School a small building on stilts by the church.














After stocking up with food in Sainsburys we had an hour to relax before the arrival of our next visitors Clive and Helen. Spent a pleasant hour and a half with them, they brought courgettes and apples from their garden.

Sculpture in the basin
Walked along to the waterfront where a jazz band were playing. Warm enough to sit outside - we treated ourselves to a curry - our first meal/takeaway of the trip.
