Mrs van Elden tells us about her French barging holiday.

Today Mrs van Elden visited  to tell us all about her recent holiday... Barging along the canals of France. 

It was so interesting to hear all about her adventures. She told us about how locks and aqueducts worked and showed us some pictures of them. Her holiday sounded so amazing, sailing along the canals and then stopping at places of interest. They then hopped off the boat and cycled around to discover even more.

These trees were originally planted so that
house boats could tie their boats alongside
the edge of the canal.
