Margaret and Michael met us on Friday and we had an enjoyable lunch and catch up at The Falcon Pub/Restaurant, which has always been a favourite of ours, as it is where we celebrated the Launch of NB Lottie with Christine's Dad Ted and several other members of the family.
We had the barbecue in Fotheringhay as arranged meeting up with Dave and Betty Cash the night before as they and a few other members had decided to come down to have the whole of Saturday at Fotheringhay.
We then set off early on Sunday morning with Dave and Betty on NB Olly Oaks for the final leg back to Peterborough Yacht Club. It was a perfect day showing the River Nene at it's best. We had breakfast on the go as we needed to get back leaving enough time to get the boat packed up and to get back home.
It has been a very enjoyable trip with almost perfect weather all the way, visiting new destinations and old ones alike and seeing friends and family en route.
We have travelled around 470 miles this trip with about 160 Locks😅
Thanks to all our followers😃
