The Canal-Day 10

Pershore to Tewkesbury 

Over 1000 pageviews! I love you guys! And then dad goes and bursts my bubble, by telling me that most of them will be spiderbots. Well, that's what parents are there for, I guess. To burst your bubble. Never mind. My bubble cannot be burst! I will float around forever!

Highlights

-OK. That is it. I have had enough. What is it with  the Ugly Duckling? Cygnets are not ugly. Who on earth came up with that? A very sick person, obviously. They are not ugly. The are cute and fluffy.

See? (not our photo).

Well, I believe we have that matter settled. Cygnets - CUTE AND FLUFFY AND ADORABLE IN EVERY WAY. In your face, Hans Christian Anderson. You had done no research on the subject, therefore we will take your PhD away.

- At a lock, a lock keeper gave us lollies! And what's more, it was an automatic lock, so all we did was sit  there (and look cute).

- We saw a seal! And for those of you who are thinking 'No big deal! It's a seal. So what? In Nelson, we see them all the time. Nyaah!'

I admire your wit, but you are completely wrong. For quite a few reasons:

a) The river is miles from the sea. Literally. Dad calls it a long way, but I call it 32km.

b) The. River. Is. Filthy. Admittedly, yes, the river is not as filthy as the canal, but is is still really dirty. I am amazed that there are people fishing in there. I am not entirely sure of the success rate,though.
