| On the Oxford Canal near our marina |
We left the marina at 10am in a breezy and cold wind. Sadly the warm dry and sunny spring days of last week are over, at least for the time being, and today we had to wear 4 layers of clothing to keep warm.
The route took us down to Braunston Junction where we turned west.on the Grand Union Canal. After a stop for lunch on board we reached Napton Junction where the Oxford Canal leaves the GU. At 15:30 we moored up for the day out in the countryside near the village of Napton on the Hill in Warwickshire.
The first job was to light our smokeless fuel stove which will keep the boat cosy for the evening.
