Hello and welcome back to my blog 😊.

This morning myself and Mick completed walking our last section of The Grantham Canal in order to claim that we have walked the full 33 mile length. We had a nice sense of achievement.

We started at Woolsthorpe-by-Belvoir and walked to the end of the canal in Grantham and back – a distance of 10 miles.

It was a sunny but frosty start to our walk. There was ice on the canal.

Once walking we started to warm up and enjoy the sunshine. There were a lot of Swans along the length of the canal.

The A1 was built over the canal so the canal stops on one side and then starts further along into Grantham.

We were now in urban territory passing by houses to our left and the canal to our right.

As we reached the end of the canal it was sad to see the shopping trollies, plastic bottles and general waste in the canal. An inauspicious end to our journey.

However, all was forgiven when a very friendly cat came and said hello while we were sat on a bench having a cuppa 😊.

So having reached our destination we turned around and enjoyed our walk back along the canal. The Swans were sunning themselves.

Another lovely walk and no mud!

Happy Walking!
