Jan,
Thanks for your positive comments about my photos.

Glad to hear that you appear to be clear of covid now.

Hi Ian,

There was plenty to see on the walk.  It was, however, too hot for the preliminary walk around Limehouse basin.  

We deviated from the canal at Mile End in search of a decent pub, but could not find one.    We stopped at The Victoria Pub after a long trudge through a desert landscape.  It's not on the canal but worth a detour - gatro prices though.

I think we missed about 1/2 mile of the canal with the detour.  

It was a bit disappointing on the canal boat front.  There were no boats in motion!

Glad everyone survived the day, one way or another. great pictures...

Hi,

I do intend to do this walk myself, will try for late September or early October. Once I can pick a day without train strikes, I'll post the date here and if anyone wants to join in, they can.
