  • Now that we're done with Stratford-upon-Avon it's time to explore the river itself. We cruise our floating home downstream, and bask in the peace, quiet and cleanliness of this stunning river. But things don't start off quite to plan, so we hit pause, reset, and full immerse ourselves in this untouched river 😙🌳

      We were a little stressed as we didnt know what to expect, it can always be daunting going onto a new river and Wes has anxiety too which can make it worse. He explained that in the video 😊

    I love the fact that where I live in Victoria Australia, the places are named after the old places in the UK, we have the Avon river, and it passes through the township of Stratford.. fun fact, recently decommissioned was one of the countries oldest wooden rail bridges in Australia

    Talking about those tall mooring posts and the houses being away from the river brings to mind that here in our little midwestern town my home is something like 2 miles away from and 200 feet above the river, and given the Missouri River's history of flooding I am quite content to be here instead of lower and closer. Also, mosquitoes are a little less thick here than they are right on the riverbank. 😄 It can flood to the degree that the channel has switched sides of the local river valley several times.

      Telling someone with anxiety to relax is not helpful and actually adds more stress. If he could relax, he would.

      Generally they will rely a lot more on the centre, and I think they can tie onto the posts when they're off the boat working the locks but yeah it is sooo much harder as a solo! Respect to them
