Eton Dorney to Marlow 4 locks 11.5 miles 4 hours

Left Eton Dorney at 8.00 with a little rain in the air passed through the lovely village of Bray lots of really nice houses, this one caught our eye because of the large inflatable swan in the garden.

Then on passed Maidenhead down one of the prettiest parts of the Thames we have seen so far, four small islands are in this stretch of the Thames one of which we have marked in our map book for future reference has the most perfect secluded mooring on. 

You also catch a wonderful view of Cliveden Hotel in the distance on top of the hill.

Then on to Marlow where we stocked up on food and have moored for the night.

The first picture shows our view across the river from By The Way and you can just see By The Way in the second picture ( last boat on the right ).

And this is the view down stream, showing the pretty Marlow suspension bridge.
