full speed ahead (not)

On the Grand Union Canal with Anniemay's great-niece and nephew (and their mum).  They're visiting for a few days.

A fun and interesting trip - all the more so because the boat is electric.  See extras.  
A big plus is that because the boat is so quiet, wild life seemed to hardly notice us as we drifted along.  Plenty of birds to keep the spotters onboard happy.
