Just two new continuous cruisers making their way under the Isis Lock Bridge to wind in the Thames below!
Just typing this makes us realize how lucky we are to live this life and be where we want to be!!!

Happy Easter from Wendy and Laurence. While we didn’t bring chocolate we did bring a narrowboat moment from the Oxford Canal!

Seriously? How could you not love views like this and pretty much want to see them everyday?
Canal life is a happy life (ignoring all the hard work and relentless workarounds).

The beauty of being moored so close to Oxford is being able to pop in and really enjoy this incredible city.
Had the chance to explore the Covered Market and grab a pie from Pieminster.
An absolute must do!!!!

The view at the CRT facilities just south of St Edward’s Lift Bridge (238) is stunning.
So beautiful.
Once the water is full our cruising is done for today. Great weather for it!

Aside from the beauty of the Oxford canal, we’re meandering down to take full advantage of our proximity to Oxford itself!
Final toured the Ashmolean Museum and grab lunch at Turf Tavern, or as we locals call it, the Turf!

We’re finding one of the nicest parts of canal life is learning about and becoming a tiny part of each community you moor near. We’ve learnt so much more about Kidlington now than we did when passing through in 2023!

A very photographic Thrupp on the Oxford Canal!

Had the opportunity to cruise! The sun came out to join us from Lower Heyford to Thrupp.
Lost our detachable iPhone SSD and all the other footage on it 🤨
Check out Wendy vying for her CRT credentials at the lock!!!

Are we getting bored with the abundance of wildlife on the English Canals?
Nope.
We know swans are mean, beg for food and think they can go head to head with a narrowboat. But they’re still beautiful!

The #narrowboat is definitely moving along! Chris, Charlotte, and John at Smithwood Narrowboats are making our new home a beautiful addition to the amazing English Canals!
The interior looks equally as stunning!

Wet days of muddy towpaths tend to fade away from memory with a view like this.

Cruised today from Aynho wharf to Somerton Meadows.
It was cold, fortunately didn’t rain but you could still see our breath as we spoke.
What more can I say that would top the deep thoughts from Wendy 🤷♂️
And yes, she’s absolutely steering!

Another incredible reel from Wendy looking at our time in #Harajuku on #TakeshitaStreet in #Japan
And yes it was as much fun as it looks. Our time there is included in our latest Japan video on our YouTube channel!

The final episode of our #Japan #travel adventure is FINALLY completed! This was edited over two states and two countries, living out of four different homes as we made our way from the US to England.

Wendy manages to capture the modern and traditional views in the beautiful #Japanese town of #Takayama in this amazing reel.
We only stayed for two nights, should’ve been much longer!!!!

It’s official, we’re both retired and about to make a HUGE life change!
We’ve sold our house and downsized our possessions for a narrowboat life. We’ll be in the UK in December, in a rented NB by Feb, and in our own NB by June! So excited!
#narrowboat #canal #ukcanals #LoveTwoTravel #retirement
The rural village of Shirakawa-Go may not be the most well known tourist spot in #Japan but it is an amazing way to spend a day. Designated a #UNESCO World Heritage site, some of the homes date back to the third century!

Another incredible reel from Wendy. Us aside, if you haven’t been watching our #Japan travel videos, you’re missing an incredibly beautiful country!

A fresh off the press!!! The shell of our #narrowboat build is nearing completion by Tim Tyler! Next stage, electric motor and everything that goes with that!
Giddy is only one of our many emotions right now!!!!

Taking our recent #Croatia Travel adventure to a lighter note, Wendy snapped this pic. Croatians have a great sense of humor!!!!

The obvious rule of the Croatian island of Hvar is you can never have enough pictures of its bustling main port.
This version is when it’s at its most quiet, later in the evening.

Hats off to #Dubrovnik , this is as tacky as it got in the walled Old Town. Impressed at the towns efforts to keep it classy!

And it’s live! Our latest travel adventure from Japan!
Golden pavilions and hidden temples! Oh my!

Wendy always does a great job on our Facebook videos. Some great behind the scenes from our time in the Geisha district in Kyoto Japan!

One of the few disappointments from our trip to Llangollen was not riding the amazing steam trains. A private party had booked the trains while we were there!

Wendy’s latest reel from instagram. Japan still tops the list for all round memories and experiences.
There’s a reason so many travelers make the looong trip!

There’s more to Kyoto’s Golden Palace that gold covered buildings and temples. They brew a mean tea!!!
So much fun, so the obvious travel tip is stop, take your time and enjoy!

Only the best views from the stern of a 57’ narrowboat cruising the Llangollen canal.

Waking up on the canals and your only neighbor is a nearby bridge.
