Warwick

 A short day's travelling as we are booked into Kate Boats at Warwick for a 250 hour engine service first thing tomorrow morning.

Soon after starting at 9:30 we descended the remaining Radford Lock on our own and entered Leamington Spa.  Today was our last opportunity for a major shop before we get to Worcester in the middle of next week.  Fortunately Leamington has 2 major supermarkets, Morrisons and Lidl right next to the canal. We stocked up at Morrisons with only 3 items on out long list unavailable.

After lunch on the Morrisons mooring we set off towards Warwick.  At the edge of the town the canal passes on a high aqueduct over the River Avon.  After a short stretch of countryside we entered Warwick where this a large Tesco, again next to the canal.  Here we completed our shopping and then moved on another mile to moorings opposite Kate Boats.
