OK..  So the day has come..   the crew is ready (and suitably wound up about how long this will take )

Travelling down the locks, Dawson and myself took it in turns to drive so the other could assist CC and Anna in doing the locks..   that way either didnt get to knackered..

CC ran ahead for most of them and prepped at least 3 locks ahead so as we came out of one..  entered the next with no waiting..

After 4 hours…

Moored at the bottom of the Caen Hill Flight of Locks

 

It was a long day..  time to stay put until tomorrow..   and get some rest..
