Introduction
After our participation in the Guildford Boat Gathering we moved on to Bristol. There was some urgency in our journey as MF had to be in Bristol on the next Saturday week for a medical school reunion. The journey takes us down the River Wey to the Thames, then on to Reading before joining the Kennet & Avon Canal to Bristol. Altogether this is 151 miles and 135 locks. This photo shows Cliveden House overlooking the Thames just north of Maidenhead.
