Almost did one of these small barge trips with another couple but the photos scared me off, as in too slow all around.

From what I understand, they're 99% total boredom, and 1% terror when you come to a lock.
I used to live in a house that backed on to the Shropshire Union Canal. It was very entertaining watching the amateurs pootle past. I also used to get the dreaded psycho swan knock on the back door, demanding bread with menaces.
I was only joking

The famous Waverton swan. He would travel along the canal, and pop out visiting houses along the way.
I was renting a room, and basically looking after the house for this rich guy who spent most of his life on a yacht somewhere in the Mediterranean. Sunday morning, I'm sitting in the kitchen, and there's a knock on the back door, that led out to the canal. I started, looked out of the window, nobody there. Then another knock, then this freaking swan's head suddenly appeared in the window, banging repeatedly on the glass.
They can get quite aggressive.

I loved living in that place. The guy was basically gone for about 8 months of the year.
Here was the street, it cost me about $300 a month to have the run of the house.
