Locks at Stoke Breurne

 

We went Canal Boating way back in 2000, and loved it.

So when we saw the Stoke Bruerne lock flight we wanted to have a look and thought the boys would probably enjoy it too.

 

 

 They started with just looking, but was soon involved in opening and closing the locks.

 

 

The boys loved helping everyone and spent close to 2 hours opening and closing locks. Alex would make a good lock manager, because he was forever looking at how many boats were queuing, which way they needed to go and what would be the most efficient way of using the locks...

They want to come canal boating on our next trip.

Later on we went for a walk along the canal, checking out all the different boats...

 

...and for a walk through the bush

 

Another fun day out...
