On To The Montgomery

We were greeted by lovely blue skies when we woke on Wednesday. We moved round to the staircase locks which begins your decent on to the  Montgomery canal. Two lock keeps work these locks but to everyone's surprise they were letting 3 boats down and then 3 boats up. We thought that CRT recommends when using  a lock it is one boat down and one up !!. Anyway after a short wait

(2 Hrs) we were off.

At one of the locks a gentleman in his garden was cleaning his garden railway getting it ready for the summer, I would love one of them in my garden.

 Again we have been amazed at the scenery we really do have a beautiful country

This is the result of the high winds we had on Tuesday its blown
these trees over reviling the canal membrane under it  

We moored up at Bridge 79 and had a fantastic meal at the Navigation Inn, 3 courses for 15.99 we would highly recommend this to anyone you have to be seated before 7.00 to get this offer.
