Slowly down the Thames. Coming back to the start! Sailing Ocean Fox Ep 233

We are starting our way downstream the Thames. From Sonning through the locks and the stunning views of the river.
We are really enjoying our last few weeks on the boat before leaving her for the winter in Chertsey.
We will make a pause for a few days in maidenhead to wait for the bad weather to pass by. We have a chance to fill up the tank with water for the next few weeks.
Carla still stresses about going under the Bridges, it does look like we are going to hit sometimes.
The river looks much quieter as we are going through September.

A little bit about us...
We met in the summer 2015, we were introduced to each other by the virtual world. Eighteen months later we were getting married on a beautiful beach on Barbados, bare foot, very simple ceremony just like a dream!
Two days after the wedding laying on the beach, talking about sailing, Carla suggested... why don't we sail around the world? Guess what Simon said? "Let's do it" He took it with no second thoughts! And here we are, two years after that day in Barbados, we started our adventure in Croatia.
We made it happen working through all the challenges on the way.
Now we are enjoying this wonderful life, and what a wonderful life it is!
As we travel we will cross less fortunate countries, we would love to help to build a school or a health care centre, anything that these people may need, and in our beautiful world this is taken for granted. But for these people it's a dream, or may not even be a dream.
We will look around and when the opportunity to help comes we will put our hands and hearts in to it.
