Another really hot day! We were glad of help again from Laila!
There were a number of grand arches along this stretch of canal.
You certainly couldn't miss this bright colour scheme!!
We reached the lock at Wheaton Aston and Laila was really excited as she would be helping Nanna with the gates! First we had to let a hire boat through. It was their first ever lock so I helped show them the ropes!
Then it was our turn to go through.
Laila enjoyed helping and was really brave crossing the gate bridge.
We found a mooring spot near the Hartley Arms pub where we would be stopping for lunch.
After lunch John drove Angela and Laila back to their car at the Anchor pub. They had to go home. It had been the most gorgeous weekend and we were sad to see them go but I do have to say it was nice to relax with a rhubard gin and ginger ale!
We sat outside watching the sunset til late. Gorgeous and cool now and so peaceful.
