Longboating Trip

 

Shakespeare's house in Stratford-upon-Avon

Jane and Margie working together

A weir

Our boat ready to leave the lock

Angela using all her strength to close the lock

One of many beautiful homes along the riverside

Jane and Jacqui

Margie balancing along the side of the boat

Charles chatting up a storm while the girls do all the work

There are many of these beautiful, quaint bridges you pass under

Even life on a boat is not the same without TV

Swans with ugly ducklings

A riverside trailer park

Canadian geese far away from home

And the Pimm's will flow

Jacqui and Paddy-Ann

Swans begging for food

Life on the water is tough

Jacqui feeding the Queen's swans

A rather high lock

The canals remind one of Venice

The end of a memorable experience
