As I said last time, the beautiful sight of Leander sailing, was not a familiar one to us, but we did get quite familiar with her moored profile and I would spend quite a lot of our shore time, admiring her fine lines from the river bank.
I particularly liked this mooring as there was a handy seat for me to rest on as I looked at Leander and thought how beautiful she looked. In fact, not only was Leander beautiful, the situation of this mooring was also very beautiful. We were at Gay's Staithe which is a delightful and peaceful a mooring as you can get. This is how it looked, as we left the next morning after everyone else had gone.
We were all very contented. Not only had we had a peaceful night in this idyllic spot, we'd also found a good pub a pleasant mile's stroll down the road, where we'd had a lovely time chatting with 2 fellow boaters and their 2 canine friends. They (the human half of the quartet) were kind enough to decide they couldn't eat all of their huge bowl of chips, and kindly donated most of them to us.
What lucky bears were are.
Lots of love, Eddie and crew xxx
