Henley to Sonning Bridge

1 locks: 6.0 miles

I was going to spend a second night in Henley and then go all the way to Reading.
However, after a hearty breakfast cooked on Hallmark decided to go to Shiplake or maybe Sonning.
First under Henley Bridge and a look back at the town.





















Then less than a mile to Marsh Lock where the lock is quite difficult to locate because of many double parked cruisers.


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Chugged up through Shiplake and the Wargrave on to near Sonning where I stayed night on wonderful peaceful mooring under the trees near Sonning Bridge.
The mooring was £10 a night on land owned by Uri Geller, the self-proclaimed mystifier who bent spoons!





 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Having brought some chicken in Henley I decide to cook a chicken curry.  Great home made food!
Then sat on the back deck of Hallmark and watched the sun go down through the trees opposite.
