An early start before it gets too hot

We’ve discovered early mornings!
It really has been so much more comfortable cruising early whilst it’s still cool ...
10 to 8 arriving at Stoke Hammond Lock (once again!)
That’s me bringing Still Rockin’ into the lock - I feel a lot more confident steering her now but need to practice steering amongst the other boats
 No gongoozlers at the Three Locks pub this early in the morning ...
 ... and at 09:30 the sun is burning through the clouds
 10 o’clock and we’re moored up for the day a few miles north of Leighton Buzzard.

That looks like the mooring at Broad Oak Bridge (109), one of our favourites!

Spot on Adam! Even though the railway is not too far away it’s a very peaceful mooring.
