There are quite a few canals in England and only a small number in Scotland. I know that in some of the tunnels in England the men had to lie down on the decks and walk their feet along the walls of the tunnels to keep the boats from hitting the walls.Evelyn/Ev/Eveehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17628952260132857512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-489943261763343563.post-22699507335269597402012-01-07T15:40:13.518+00:002012-01-07T15:40:13.518+00:00Evee, thanks for the letter just to little old me!...Evee, thanks for the letter just to little old me! The pictures you posted did make it look very rocky and wet to walk in. If I ever get to come to Scotland maybe you'll have had surgery and you and I can walk that tunnel and we will bring Katrina too! We have a 3,118 ft. tunnel that is part of our Chesapeake and Ohio Canal system that was used for commence before railroads etc. The canal runs thru it with a tow path alongside that the mules walked on to pull the boats along. My hubby and son have been in it but not me yet. You have inspired me and I think I will get my son to take me this summer. I will do a post about the tunnel soon. We have many tunnels on our road ways but they are well lit. How scary they would be if not! The New Zealand trip sounds wonderful! It is fun really to be 'scared' when we know it is really safe:)Peggy@Peggy Ann's Posthttp://peggyannspost.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-489943261763343563.post-7249623389075832912012-01-04T22:29:42.756+00:002012-01-04T22:29:42.756+00:00Evelyn,

I had thought we could maybe take a look at a gallery - but maybe not. It's still windy here.Katrinahttp://piningforthewest.co.uknoreply@blogger.com
