This was my longest day of paddling – I got on the river at 9:00am and paddled until 6:00pm covering a distance of 14.5 miles. Because I knew I had a long way to go I decided to eat my breakfast and lunch in the canoe as I paddled along. My delicious breakfast was four granola bars and my 5 star lunch was a can of cold baked beans and two slices of bread. I camped at Laleham Campsite which was across a road from the river bank which meant my canoe would not be secure from potential mischief. I solved this problem by hiding the canoe from sight in the rushes by the river bank. As you can see, I went by Windsor Castle on my way. I remembered from my youth that the castle was clearly visible across the meadows that you can see. I guess in 63 years the trees have grown up and my expected view was not there. Oh well, at least you can see some of the castle.
