Wolverly to Wolverhampton (May 1st)

cloudy sunshine.

The campsite at Wolverly was very good, the price £8:40 seemed good to me as it had all amenities and the staff were very friendly and helpful.
I heard one downpour in the night and woke to find the feet end of sleeping bag was wet, on the trail by 6 am and soon passing many tunnels that are part of the canal carved through the sandstone. I arrived Kinver around 8 am and found it surprisingly sleepy, luckily a bakers was open so i had a corned beef and salad roll with water.

At Stourton there is a  branch canal which goes to Stourbridge.

Reaching Swindon around 11 am i found a post office for pasty and more water (More for less, I could have had a croissant, these seem to me to be a pasty minus it’s filling so are more money for less food), 

 Also saw first Canada geese with goslings.

At Wombourne i finally found a pot of tea at a sainsburys beside the canal

really nice day cruising canal side
