Floating along
the kiddos came across a brochure the other day for canal boat holidays…. it reminded me of how much i always wanted to spend a week on one, sailing from place to place, seeing the sites and sleeping on the water. i grew up near a canal, and saw the narrowboats most days, it always seemed so cosy on board, i imagined it being a peaceful and relaxing way to spend a holiday {though with three kids on board too i’m not so sure!}
still, it got me thinking, the girls seemed keen on the idea of a narrow boat holiday so perhaps next summer that’s what we’ll do. have any of you ever been on one?
