Our overnight mooring looked even better in the morning sunlight as it fell on the far bank of the canal. The foxgloves in particular reflected nicely off the mirror-like surface of the canal:
Looking north in the direction we'd soon be moving off, the scene was equally as tranquil:
Once on the move, we passed through one of the shorter tunnels on the canal system, Cowley Tunnel. Very dark, damp and green:
By early evening, we'd got back to Market Drayton to moor for the night, putting us within range of Nantwich tomorrow.
After a walk into town for emergency wine supplies (for Barbara!) I took stock of our surroundings and noted the rabbits playing a few yards away and then as I was about to put the camera away, two swans and their cygnets glided past. This one happening to pass through a beam of evening sunlight.
And this is our mooring for the night, pleasant dappled sunlight and very quiet:
