A lovely view as we made our way out of Llangollen yesterday with Rikki and Nicky aboard through the narrows with the River Dee down below us on the left ( you can just see BB in the distance)

Memorable events now 10 latest addition the red balloon event in Llangollen

We are back in Trevor basin tonight and will stay around the area till next Monday as we have some very old friends visiting from Bexhill at the weekend.

A picture of Denise and David (Anne has known Denise since they were 6 months old!!!) beside the River Dee


A view across the River Dee towards Llangollen Railway station( a preserved line that runs steam trains at weekends) the Canal Wharf is above the station.


From the Wharf you can take a horseboat ride to the source of the canal water at Horseshoe Falls. Narrow boats can only go as far as the barge as it then becomes too shallow.



This mummy duck just stayed put with her ducklings
