One of my fanciful plans is to walk the length of the Kennet & Avon Canal. Here's some photos from the stretch between Aldermastson and the end - where it joins the Thames in Reading.

| Going under the A33 |
 |
| We must be nearing Reading - the graffiti is getting worse |
 |
| Entering Reading proper |
A few years later, I re-walked this stretch as part of a longer sponsored walk. Click here for details.
