Yesterday we car/bike/boat hopped. It started with Elizabeth and Blossom leaving Bella to meet Reg in the car park of the Two Boats in Long Itchington, then drive to Welsh Road Lock about 2 1/2 miles ahead, park Reg, unfold Blossom and cycle back to Bella. All of us then travelled 15 clicks, 10 of them locks, to Radford Semele just east of Leamington Spa. Pete and Blossom went back to collect Reg, do a bit of shopping and come home. While they were away, Elizabeth finished her crab apple jelly (tow path forage again) and put up some blackberry jam, the berries fresh picked on arrival at the mooring. This morning, Elizabeth took the train to Oxford for early meetings and Pete drove for late ones.
It may sound confusing, but we LOVE this life!!!
