For the very first time ...

The days before we left ... Wednesday (20th May) ...
We took a walk to Medmenham Meadow to see what space there was like ... plenty and 'our' space was free too ... goody, goody!




When we were sitting on the deck later we were surprised to see swimmers coming up the weir stream and even more surprised when one of them stood up on a sand bank ... so we knew to be wary of that when we moved off.





We thought that they would have turned back once they saw the strength of the water coming over the weir, but no, off they went round the island into the lock cut

First cygnets too this year ...
and a pretty evening scene at 9 o'clock

Thursday (21st) was as the title states ...
I have always been very envious, even a little jealous ...
of other folk seeing the sight of cygnets riding on mum's back ...
let alone getting a photo of this event ... so I am so thrilled to have witnessed this.
