Aynho on Monday night

We left Cropredy, having exchanged addresses with our new Melbourne friends, and had a glorious travelling day to Aynho. It is wonderful to see places which are now familiar and to be travelling again! We passed Nell's Bridge Acre where we moored a bit last year and Sarah came down to the wharfside to say hello as we passed. She tells us that Clarissa is due to have piglets in a matter of days. All in all, we did 8 locks and 11 miles and the weather was a heavenly sunshine with the occasional bit of cloud. We wandered into the Railway Arms, as the pub is sandwiched between the canal and the rail line. Brilliant day.
