Hooray we are back on the move
Here is the map of the day
The river Avon is borderline on RED meaning we are only just allowed to continue due to the rapid flow.
A fairly straight forward route today with Eileen and Tim with us. Wendy was very thankful for Tim to help with the locks.
Here are some other pictures from the day
And here is our final spot for the night
Tomorrow we head toward Stratford upon Avon where we leave the river and get back on to the Canal.

We were very excited at the start of the day as some new crew joined us for the day
At the start of the day we hit a bit of a traffic jam, someone had manage to drain all the water! Canal and river trust to the rescue! Here is us queuing under the M5!
Today we completed the Worcester and Birmingham canal and joined the mighty river Severn, suddenly our canal boat seems very small.
We left the canal and are heading towards Tewkesbury, the river is fairly fast flowing so we archived a lot of distance in a short time cruising at a massive 6 mph, nearly twice our normal speed.
We have moored overnight at Upton upon Severn and managed to grab a curry as we said goodbye to Lu and Teresa.
As were are now on the Severn we are alongside some rather larger vessels than we are used to.
Here are some other images of the day
So last weekend we spend on the boat with Ally and Clare. Meeting at the Folly at Napton worked well and meant a Friday pub lunch was in order.
Here are a few pictures
