A Walk

Today was Thomas' first Walk. He is walked everywhere, but thus was a walk with footpaths and walking boots. It was only along the river, but at over 3 miles I'm sure it counts.

We walked to see the empty locks and aqueduct a little way up the canal at dowley gap. You may recall last winter we went down into the canal at Bingley's famous five rise locks, and this year they've come further down the canal to replace the gates and do other maintenance to the locks. It's fun to be down in the bowels, to be reminded how deep they are, and then surprised at how shallow the aqueduct is.

So, not a hill top but not a bad start to his walking record.
