Densie entering Glascote top lock in TamworthWe started early (for us) this morning at 9:10 as we were getting low on provisions. on the outskirts of Tamworth A couple of miles cruising took us to Ventura Park, a large shopping centre. A half mile walk took us to Sainsburys where we stocked up for the next few days.
On the move again at 11:45 we travelled the mile to FazeleyJunction where we filled the water tank and then moored for lunch. Fazeley is where the Birmingham & Fazeley Canal turns south towards the centre of Birmingham. Our journey continued east back on the Coventry canal where we crossed the Tame and then ascended the two Glascote Locks. After leaving Tamworth the scenary much improved as the canal travelled through pleasant woodland.
We have moored within sight of but fortunately sufficiently far from the M42 for some peace and quiet.
