Back in Ely after a long weekend down south

Today Little Thetford to Ely, River Great Ouse, about 3 miles 0 locks
Long weekend moored Little Thetford

We moored just off the official 48 hour moorings at Little Thetford as we were going to be more than the allowed time of 48 hours visiting my Dad and Vic’s Mum down on the south coast, making a long weekend of it by leaving on Friday.

Back this morning bringing with us young Kiera, my eldest granddaughter, who is coming to stay for a week.  We were back to No Problem just before 3pm, and decided to pull the pins and go down to Ely to fill with water, as I have planned to maybe go down towards Cambridge.  There is no water that way you see, well there is right down the bottom of the River Cam on the visitor moorings where the navigation ends, but I don’t want to go right down there, it is possible there will be no room..

We walked Lucy and Meg over the golf course this evening, and Kiera enjoyed watching and helping superstar Lucy find all the golf balls in the hedges.. 17 they had in a half hour of looking..

Fish and Chip supper tonight before watching the Olympic highlights.. then a DVD for Kiera in her cabin before she crashed for the night.. I must admit I am shattered too.. won’t be too long ‘till I do much the same!
