The hedgerows and trees aren't in leaf yet, so you can see things that aren't visible later in the year. Near Shuckburgh on the way to Braunston you can often hear rooks as you pass. This time of year you can see their nests in the treetops too. Braunston was very quiet and we stopped for lunch on the terrace of the Mill House, the sun taking this as a cue to emerge from behind the clouds. Afterwards we paired up with another boat through the locks. Although intending to stop before the tunnel, such a nice evening meant we decided to carry on into the evening and moor just after Norton Junction. The repairs to the landslip before the tunnel are finished now, at long last.
