Post-Easter Cruise 2014 - Definitely downhill

We left Worcester at 8.10a.m. on another grey morning. The St George’s flag on the cathedral is at half-mast for Denise Inge.

Only Diglis Lock today before arriving at Tewkesbury at 11.40.  We moored below the Avon Lock on the Old Avon and after lunch went for a wander around Tewkesbury. There was a wedding about to start at the Abbey so we contented ourselves with going to the tea-room for more coffee and cake, and then having a bit of a wander around the town.

The blog titles yesterday and today both give an indication that it is quite a novel experience going twice as fast as usual because we are on a river rather than a canal. 6 mph is almost hairy!

Back to the boat for the evening.
