| Coming up to Fazeley Junction |
The sun was shining again today as we set off from Hopwas. Past the Red Lion pub on the canal and on along
towards the junction. We stopped just
before at the services to get water, etc, then just after we turned right onto
the Birmingham & Fazeley canal and chugged on along there. Drayton Manor theme park is nearby here, but
we went on, no white knuckle rides for us, well we get that every day with Kev’s
driving ha ha!!

| Unusual Footbridge at Drayton Bassett |
There is a very unusual footbridge here, so under that and we moored
just after. It wasn’t an official
mooring and we couldn’t get right into the side, so we walked down to the next
bridge to see if there were any better moorings and there was metal just after
that bridge and it was nice and open and sunny, so we walked back to the boat
and moved down to that spot. It was near
to the village of Drayton Bassett so we walked up to the village, no shops,
just some houses and a school and a church but a nice village.
Walked back to the boat and chilled out.
Chugging off tomorrow and as we have 11 locks
to do, we will be leaving early, so something to look forward to!!
