Wye canoe – part two

Our adventure down the River Wye from Mordiford at the end of July had been cut short at Ross-on-Wye due to the dangerously swollen river. But Dave and I were still keen to do the second section, from Ross down to Redbrook.

This time I took the train, a direct service from Stockport to Hereford where Dave picked me up. We drove to Ross-on-Wye and pitched our tents at the White Lion once more.

It was a warm, sunny afternoon and the river level had dropped by about two metres since our last visit. We had a pleasant evening eating, drinking and watching the sun go down over the river.
