We are moving on today but first we needed to get some water
and the tap is two locks above from where we are moored so we have two water
containers so we took the containers and two trolleys to put them on and walked
up to the tap, we must have looked like proper water gypsies!
Turning Around |
Leaving our lovely mooring at Audlem |
We emptied it into the water tank and Kev fetched one more
and then we were full.
It was then time to leave Audlem, we have had a great few
days here seeing our lovely Audlem family and going out and about but we will
see them all again in September, so will look forward to that.
Chugging in a rain shower |
We had to turn around so we waited for a couple of boats to
pass and then Kev turned around in the winding hole and we chugged off along
the canal towards Nantwich.
Can you spot the Oyster Catcher? |
It was dry when we left, but we had a heavy shower while we
were going along, I was okay as I was inside and Kev got the brolly out so he
didn’t get too wet and it didn’t last long and then the sun came out again.
We went under a few bridges, past Overwater Marina and just
before we got to where we were going to moor, Kev spotted an Oyster Catcher in
the field along with the geese, they are a rare sight on the canal as you
usually see them on rivers, so nice to see, unfortunately he was quite far away
but I did manage to get some kind of picture!
We went on a bit further and moored at Coole Pilate Leisure
Area, this is a nice spot with picnic tables and barbeques. We moored up and then it rained again.
We are staying here now for a couple of days just to chill
out and then we will head for Nantwich for the weekend.
