Grand Union Canal

This is part of the Grand Union Canal which starts in London and finishes in  Birmingham, 137 miles away.
Last week after visiting Perivale Underground station I walked back into London via the Paddington arm of the canal, a distance of about 7 miles.























There were so many reflections it was hard to choose but I think this was my favourite.

    The boats are very colourful. I would be worried about the centre of gravity of the garden boat.

    Such a pretty canal. It must be nice to live near the water in some of those buildings.

    Looks like a nice level walk. Did you end in rain? the last photo looked like rain clouds.

    That would be fun to ride one of those boats along the canal.

    Great walk. That boat (nearly at the end) with all the stuff on top looks like it might collapse due to all the weight on top!

    I love the canal boats and imagine what it would be like to stay on one. The one with the garden on top is wonderful!

    Reminds me of the Kennet near where I live, you would not think that was in the City of London would you

    Loved this. I dream about taking a long canal-boat trip someday. It would be my ideal vacation.
