Thursday, September 22 I had rented a narrowboat for the day so we could all spend the day on the Kennet-Avon Canal. Jim has been following some people who live on their narrow boats on YouTube and has been intrigued by it, so this was my anniversary gift to him. In light of current health conditions we decided it wasn’t a good idea to be in such close quarters so it was cancelled. Instead Jim and I did a very interesting walking tour of Bath. On the tour we learned there’s a boat we could take on the River Avon, so later in the afternoon we did just that. Fun fact, England has several rivers called Avon, which means river in Welsh. Very original.

We walked around some more after the one hour cruise. It wasn’t the day we had planned, but it was thoroughly enjoyable.
