Set off by 8am in order to arrive at the top of Hatton by 9am. When we got there there was no one in sight behind us and a single handed boater waiting to go down, so we shared with him.
After a while we caught up with another single handed boater who was going down and not sharing locks. This slowed us down and meant that a pair of boats caught us up and then we had plenty of help the rest of the way down which took 4 hours.
At Budbrooke junction we went straight on into the Saltisford Arm where we winded and moored.
Walked to the Cape of Good Hope for lunch, then we walked into town and followed the town trail.
Went to the Old Fourpenny Shop for a pint then to the Tilted Wig where we ate, and finally to the Lloyds No. 1 to avoid the rain.
