Trevor Basin

We are overlooking Trevor Basin on the Llangollen Canal in North Wales, a historic mooring area for narrowboats that are about to cross the Pontcysllte Aqueduct which starts just beyond the footbridge.

The PiP shows another view along the top of the aquaduct. See last photo.

Enjoy the day

They all have to wait until the paddlers have crossed. I guess with a narrowboat you learn to live at a slower pace:-) A wonderful scene.

Herb Riddle replied to Gudrun:

Yes that slows everything down. I think many of these narrowboats here are for hire and so not really waiting to cross the aquaduct.

Cheers. Herb

It looks quite busy there Herb..........but as Gudrun noted, life on a narrowboat is lived at a slower pace.

Very nicely captured from a great perspective with an interesting PiP too.

Yes, you cannot be in a hurry in a narrow boat. A pastime, good on the nerves.

I bet when crossing on a narrowboat,. the effect of seeing nothing except a huge drop to one side is quite unnerving ! great pictures Herb,. and an interestingly busy basin.. // Dj.
