Another Wet Day.

Sunday 13th October, 2013 at Atherstone
Heavy rain continued all morning and through lunch, so we stayed put.
In the afternoon, we took advantage of a break in the weather and cruised the five lock-free miles from Nuneaton to Atherstone. On the way, M was very pleased to see a boat named "Maid Marion".

We also passed the British Waterways (now Canal & River Trust) yard at Hartshill with a lovely range of old buildings including a covered loading dock.

In Atherstone, we moored up just a few yards from where we moored on 25th September on our way south.
Too wet today for many photographs or for going very far!
Today: 5 miles, 0 locks and 4.7 hours
Trip: 544 miles, 335 locks and 434.6 hours.
