Engine:5.8h Miles:6 Locks 12 & Harecastle Tunnel
Steady progress through the remaining Cheshire Locks.Passed Linda King (teapot) with Liz (Laus Deo choir!) as crew. It's a small world...
Queuing from Red Bull services and major queue at the Harecastle Tunnel. A Health and Safety survey in the morning meant late opening plus canal much busier now the rain has calmed down.
Entered the tunnel at 15:56 and exited at 16:40 after a trouble free transit. We were last in our convoy of 8 boats and the tunnel was therefore lit up for us by the lights of the other boats. Quite relaxing really. Even managed to spot the skeleton this time!
A sunny evening at last and a pretty mooring overlooking Westport Lake which we walked around after dinner to stretch our legs - very pleasant.
