Elizabeth was still in Wales today (thankfully back home now!) while Pete did all the boat managing stuff. He learned how to change the toilet cassettes (don't ask what he calls them) and went to Braunston to get a wizzy antenna for us to access the internet far more speedily. He also got a power cable for our shore power, now well connected. He is delighted to have woken up to no condensation (something about polar air?) while Elizabeth woke to Welsh frost. Standing on the stern, he saw a Kestrel land - oh, and on the way to Hillmorton, a wonderful Kingfisher led them for a number of miles. Magic. And in between Napton locks, there were water buffalo.
During the day, Josie met a few more canines and had a little run. She travelled with Pete to Braunston and Heyford, where Pete talked with David and Nigel about Bella and ballast.
A good day of settling in.
