Campbell Park, Milton Keynes 0 miles, 0 locks
Well, it's a big day today. We are on the move later! The mooring at Campbell Park we have been using is only a winter mooring. These can usually be used from October until March. Our time is up here, so for now, we are moving a few miles north to Giffard Park. I walked there with Minnie yesterday and it looks quite nice. There is a big field for the dogs, several shops, a point for water etc, and oh yes I nearly forgot, a pub which is less than 1 minutes walk away!
This will be the first time we have moved the boat, so it will be an exiting day. We have arranged to follow Paul and Valerie in the boat nest to us, who are also going to Giffard Park. They have been great to us offering help and advice each day.
First though, I need to turn the boat round this morning, put two new fenders onto one side of the boat (these are plastic or rope things that hang over the side of the boat to protect the sides). I will also need to fill up with water before we leave.
Tomorrow I will post some pictures of our first journey and new resting place.
