Our bid for freedom started at 08:30 this morning
... as we reversed away from our home pontoon
George expertly steered us, still in reverse through the narrow stream past the cruisers and through the weir stream where the craning in of the small cruisers is just about to commence.
... and here we go heading downstream, the current is still lively but the turns have been ok
Approaching Culham Court
... and its wonderful display of daffodils and narcissi
It all looks very calm!
That's our space and it's not quite 9am yet!
George doing is 'happy to be here' dance!
... and by 10:15 we've got our feet up in the sunshine
... with fantastic views
We went for a walk this afternoon, there are some stunning houses here
And this is what he's waited for since the end of October
Cheers!
Like a restless caged bird, SR is at last set free to float away and glide along the Thames. Happy cruising.

Woohoo! You’re free and out there! Fantastic! And what beautiful weather too...fare well, both of you!
ReplyDeleteMight have known George wouldn’t be able to resist a barbecue!
ReplyDeleteGreat to see you moving, we have decided for the first time in 5 years not to have a Gold license, but looking at your pictures we are already regretting that decision.
ReplyDeleteSo your first cruise sounds as short as ours!!! Change in he weather here already.
