It's the best part of the river around Stretham

Hundred Acres Mooring to Aldreth Flat Bridge, Old West River, 9 miles 0 locks

Oh my internet connection tonight has been awful, I think I might now be able to post this blog albeit late.  I have, at last, managed to upload the pics for today.. This one this morning as Kevin and Debbie pulled their pins heading for St Ives..

Nr Popes Corner, Old West River

We pulled No Problem’s pins about an hour later and battled once again with wind and rain to find a very remote location for lunch..

Before continuing along this delightfully rural stretch past the GOBA moorings at Aldreth to a mooring I spied the last time I past here. 

It is sheltered for sure, with bushes on the other side of the river sheltering the wind.. so out came the bbq much to Kiera’s delight.  And the rain held off while I cooked us a tasty meal!

I like mooring in remote places like this, it means I can let Lucy and Meg go free without worrying about upsetting anyone.. here they are enjoying the attention of Kiera.. oh and a frisby too!..

Just a very quicky tonight.. tis a bit late now, and I want to try post this blog so you can all see today’s pics..
