Spring's Adventure

Stuck.#kingscross #regentscanal #london #beastfromtheeast #snow #canal #boatlife #narrowboats

Back in January, a few weeks before our cat-sitting job in Richmond was due to end, the narrowboat’s owner told me it would be too cold in February to move back into it. On the same day, I got an email from a friend wondering if anyone would like to sublet her flat in King’s Cross for 7 weeks, until the start of March.

The sublet has been wonderful and life-saving, but it’s now coming to an end: we restart our narrowboat adventure in a week’s time!

Let the canals thaw... let the locks give us passage... let spring begin.

I get the feeling you guys are ahead of us! I'd heard from others it was warm-ish in Canada. :)

it's been in the low positives for about a week now. we've gotten a bit of snow each night the past couple nights, but nothing super substantial. to me, if the geese are on their way back, it means we're much closer to spring than we think. :)

Really glad you are not in the boat in this weather. Just the thought of it makes me shiver.
