Day 5 - Long Itchington to Flecknoe

Sunday 7th August

6.5 miles, 13 locks

Sheep at Long Itchington

Another blue sky day not quite as warm. I was preparing the first lock when Nb Rosery waved and said they were coming up too. Well, it was an interesting ten locks!

The Stockton flight

Stopped for lunch above the top lock, cleaned boat thoroughly and prepared dinner.

Cricket very exciting 5th day of third test England beat Pakistan in the final session of the day.

Our mooring

After three more locks and turning towards Braunston at Wigrams Turn we found a rural mooring opposite cornfields.

Sunset

Went for a stroll after dinner so I could complete my 10000 steps. Went up onto a bridge and caught  beautiful sunset.
