BSIE Henley on Thames

29 June rain forecasted

A rainy start on a paved, read no mud, path along the river. Mud developed.

The Thames has a dog leg at Shipley, a tasteful village that looks like Atherton CA. Large properties set very fast back from the road. Large houses with housekeepers living in.

The bypass may be due to property rights, no right of way given.

Regatta week in Henley. Many dressed, as required, for "the season". We are dressed for mud and rain.

Nice managed pub for dinner. Beer served in plastic cups. When I fused they said they ran out of glasses it is regatta week. Guess they were surprised that people drink at regatta. Got glasses, no plastic for us. This is a managed brewery pub, incredible. Decent Oxford Gold bitter.
