Thames Stroll

We took a very pleasant 5 mile stroll along the Thames Path. There is always plenty of activity both on and off the river, and the town of Abingdon was equally busy. Of course, the sunshine brings the crowds, and many tourists want to either walk beside the river, or rent a boat, and get afloat. Either way, solitude is not something they will be experiencing.

There are some very large boats moored near Abingdon, and we wondered just how they manage to get underneath the bridges.

A Most Pleasant Walk

A pleasant day, and a good opportunity to walk a little of the Thames National Path. It's an easy level hike with ever changing scenery. The weather was kind to us, and we saw lots of local wildlife, mostly birds on the Thames.

It's amazing just how busy the Thames is with folks in boats, from Narrowboats to racing dinghys and rowing boats all trying to use the same bit of water.
