Narrow boat

I have just spent the last 3 days on a narrowboat on the canals of Northamptonshire, with my Aunt Diana, my Uncle Nick and my cousins Adam and Daniel.

The boat was really long and narrow and named Andean Goose.

 Some of the best bits of narrowboating are, the locks, which help you go up and down hills,

 going through a very long tunnel,

driving the boat, and walking along the side of the boat. On the last day we nearly had a disaster, we went too close to shore and grounded the boat, the boat started to tip over, but thanks to the skill of our skipper, my Uncle Nick, we managed to get her off quickly.
