By midday we had passed Alvecote, our furthest point north yesterday. Stopped at Amington to get some shopping and grab some lunch. Met a group of scouts and their leaders from Cheltenham on a hire boat coming through Glascote Locks. Seemed to be having a great time but their buoyancy aids left a lot to be desired. Mid afternoon we arrived at Fazeley Junction and turned right onto the Birmingham & Fazeley Canal and continuing north. We stopped for the night next to Hopwas Wood Bridge on the side of a very steep hill with the River Tame beneath.
