We made it to our first stop very windy day lucky it was behind us. We saw a lot of military planes from Fairford including the B52 bomber. The river was really clear saw a lot of babies including some lovely cignets.
Day 2 completed we have made it to Abingdon after 22 miles. The sun has been shining today and the spiders and horse flies have been out in force. We've seen kingfishers, kites, kestrels and cormorants.
Day 3 A long hot day in the sun today with the wind in our faces all bloody day cutting our time and the A board acting like a sail we were tacking across the river at times, not to mention our first lock that took 20minutes to fill. Once again beautiful scenery and wildlife a plenty.
Day 4 A long and very hard day in the caneo today 28 miles and 10 Locks from Pangbourne to Cookham, we saw a mink swimming in the river made to our digs around 3.15 after starting at 6.15am.
