Rescuing Toys From Locks On Our Way To Stoke-On-Trent | Quest Vlog #89

  • We start the first leg of our Caldon Canal journey, heading up the Trent and Mersey Canal and the 9 locks between Stone and Stoke-on-Trent. Our very first lock has a child’s plastic ball floating in it, causing us some concern that it might get wedged between the side of the boat and the lock wall. After carefully filling the lock, we managed to rescue the ball!

    Glad you had good weather to get cruising! Never a bad idea to top off on diesel when you can, as even just keeping the tank full is good for a variety of reasons. Thanks for sharing this cruising video with us. Loved seeing Pixel looking so happy to be on the back enjoying the ride (and snacks). Stay safe and hopefully you have continued good weather and good moorings!

    The weather certainly helps with cruising but those willow attacking Maggie were a bit much. Those last few locks were deep and narrow, I felt a bit claustrophobic.

    • @NarrowboatChef
      @NarrowboatChef  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, there are some very deep ones that can actually be quite daunting when on board the boat looking up at them!
