When the wind finally abated I felt able to handle the next lift bridge. I cruised, in beautiful warmth, to Etruria at the junction of the Caldon & Trent & Mersey canals. Today I faced what I think of as the "scary" tunnel. I will only do Harecastle tunnel from south to North because they close gates at the south portal and switch on giant fans. I like to be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel. It was very cool in the tunnel so the sun felt really warm when I emerged. Think I'm having a day off tomorrow to visit Rode Hall.
