Day 39 - Corpach and wait for the sea lock.

A wet afternoon above "Neptune's Staircase"

Rain all night and still with us throughout the day. We arrive at "Neptune's staircase" at Balvanie to hear that the Lord of the Glen will arrive later in the day and there is no room to moor in Corpach Basin, so we decide to stay above the flight of 8 locks until the morning and follow the Lord of the Glen in a "double locking" process.
