A quick trip to Goring Lock

This morning James and I paid a short visit to one of his favourite places - Goring Lock. He loves to see the chalk boats head upstream through the lock. Particularly seeing the lock doors open and the water flow out.

Well - today it was very quiet. No boats to be seen. But it was an absolutely gorgeous day. Sunny - although a little cold at about 7 degrees.

James has an amazing memory. When we were down by the lock he recalled an earlier visit (with Granny and Papa) when he threw chestnuts in to the lock.

I enjoyed spending the morning with James. I've had a hectic week and its times like this that help you to know what's really important. We took a short stroll down the Thames saying hello to a few swans and ducks.

There are a few photos here.
