Aylesbury Canal Basin - worth the trip down the Aylesbury Arm for the friendly welcome from the Aylesbury Canal Society.

The very long Blissworth tunnel - all 3057 yards of it. This is the central section, that has been rebuilt using concrete.
|
|
The skipper looking calm... but feeling nervous! The blurred roof is caused by the darkness forcing a long exposure - we're only really going about 2 mph!
