Day 25 Anderton boat lift

Saturday 26 April 2008

We are moored about 50 yards from this magnificent piece of Victorian engineering which we are planning on going down and up tomorrow probably in the rain if the forecast is correct.

Totals to day 25 are;-
Cappuccinos to date now 5 - last one being at MoCoCo in Middlewich which is a coffee shop run by the local Community Church!
Memorable events 4
Lift bridges 6, locks 97 and miles 187

The weather is getting better as at least the rain is warmer and we are only lighting the fire in the evening!

On the way to Anderton we passed through Marbury Country Park which had masses of bluebells starting to come out which really brightened the day as it was a bit cloudy.

I have just waved at a boat called Dick Turpin
