Sun rise on a misty morning

Yesterday ... up at 5:30 out on the river at 6am
We've left in the pins, we're not going far








Past Medmenham Abbey





Approaching Danesfield Hotel




... and the weirs
... and Hurley Lock footbridge
Hotel boat Magna Carta moored but enough room for us to moor up half of Still Rockin' to fill the water tank
6:50 and we're ready to leave but we're not the only folk up and about
Reversing ...

... still reversing
... winding ...
(turning)


Nearly there ...

7:40 ... our space is still empty and our pins are still there ... fab!

Time for a cuppa, some breakfast, a shower, a couple of wash loads and hung out to dry, then we're out for the day on the bus (aren't bus passes great).  Marlow first then to Henley and a meal at the Catherine Wheel (spoons) and home as the sky darkens and the rain comes ... until ...
8:30 the rain has just about stopped and we have a pretty sunset.
