Back to England & our week on the canals south of Birmingham. Looking out to the front of the boat. We had two double beds, two loos, one bathroom, kitchen & dining room. A narrow walkway meant only one at a time could walk along inside. Not much room for dancing!
One of the tunnels & an approaching boat.
One of the many locks we mastered.
Fireworks - just for us on the River Severn at Worcester.
Saw a number of swan families. One family had 5 cygnets and one of those babies was adopted by the parents - a rare thing. We gained a lot of information about swans from a volunteer who tags them in Worcestershire. There are only two volunteers & they also go into adjoining counties. Guess it keeps them busy on weekends and afternoons and evenings!
A series of five step locks we had to negotiate - became quite expert at it all. This is just a glimpse into our very pleasant week on a narrow boat. Another thing off the bucket list.
