Today we travelled through the outer suburbs of Leicester to reach the edge of the conurbation at Kilby Bridge on a canal which forms an arm of the Birmingham/London GrandUnion.

We set off at 10am, still cruising and sharing locks with Days Like This. Sadly the scenery was of limited interest with a mixture of dense vegetation and suburban housing. The canal was shallow and weedy in places and some of the 8 wide locks difficult to operate. We arrived at Kilby Bridge at 2pm where we moored for the night.
3 hours 50 minutes, 8 Locks, 4.48 miles
