11th August 2015 - Market Harborough to Foxton!

A nice day today ; like yesterday but in reverse.
We shopped in the morning, setting out separately; Robin to get the heavy Sainsbury's shop and Jo with a list of random items (velcro, thick thread, LED light bulbs, selotape, clothes pegs....) to forage for. Although Robin did the heavy work, Jo was also particularly successful today with all items safely secured. It was like a treasure hunt, exploring a strange town and asking people where to find things. A fun experience!



Robin returns fully loaded!

 

After shopping we headed back down the canal to moor just short of Foxton locks. It's a pretty bit of canal, although narrow in places and with some debris in the water. We are moored next to two hire boats which, we assume, contain a church outing as we ate our supper to the strains of the crew singing hymns accompanied by a violin. All human life is here!

Random flouting logs.
Scooby gave them a suspicious sniff as we passed - perhaps he's seen Titanic!
