We left our mooring point...
from here...
and took the 90degree turn...
into the first lock of the day.
At this point we are now on the Trent and Mersey Canal.
We were very luck with the weather and had high spirits throughout the day...
What a lovely scarf...
We passed some christmas swans on our journey today...
and went through 5 locks over a few miles. It was really lovely, not like hard work at all. Our final lock of the day took us onto the river section of the Trent and Mersey.
We decided to look into mooring up in the lovely, historic village of Alrewas. Every time we've passed through in the high seasons there hasn't been one single space to moor. However, we were in luck today, the whole stretch was free except for one other boat.
It has been a lovely day and now I'm recovering from a festive feast. I think that winter cruising is a new favorite past-time of mine!
