5 out of 5 stars Give me a deck chair, a book, and a bottle of sunscreen........2004-04-19

A charming trip along the waterways of England. I enjoyed this DVD and replay it often. It's a window into a peaceful world with decent photography, lovely scenery and an unintrusive narrative.

5 out of 5 stars A Primer On a Unusual Experience.......2002-04-21

This is an excellent film about traveling by narrow canal boats and provides a how-to guide for those who have never had the experience of doing so. I have always wished to see travel features that actually provide something of the experience of a drive or a walk, so that the viewer can get the feeling of the journey vicariously without actually being able to do it in reality. Such a film would probably be too long and dull when covering areas that you are not interested in while too short when showing areas that do interest you. So travel features rarely replace the reality of doing it yourself. With the impossibility of such a goal understood, this program did give me the feeling that I had just been on a short vacation and had made such a trip. I felt rested after watching it and more knowledgable having witnessed some of what needs to be mastered to make the journey for real. While not a replacement for an actual trip this was a good taste of the journey and I am glad I have ths DVD in my collection to experience it again from time to time.
