Day 2:To the Aire & Calder

Day 2: 6th October. With the days now a lot shorter, we had to make good time. We set off at 10 in nice sunshine. We made good progress through the river sections. We had been worried because we had not been on the rivers for ages and we know that they can easily flood when you get done rain in the hills. It was ok. The river was up but not much. After a good day, we had covered 16miles and done 12 locks. A good day! 

We moored for the night on the wide Aure & Calder near Kings Road Lock. A good mooring with open views onto the open countryside.
