Wanderings & Witterings

Auchinstarry

A cold but dry start to the day, so I took the 10.15am bus over to Auchinstarry Marina and started walking east along the Forth and Clyde Canal. Just under two and a half hours later I had reached Underwood Lock, and from there it was a relatively short walk home.

My 2022 Canal Challenge now stands at 196 miles and the end is in sight. In fact, as coincidence would have it, it's about four miles from Underwood Lock to the Falkirk Wheel, so that would be a good place to mark the milestone. I suspect I might carry on until the Kelpies and the Carron Sea Lock, but we'll see what the weather and my diary allows.
