A Blogging Friend and a Walk Over The River in the Sky

We had a ride out to 
  On Sunday to meet our blogging friend Eileen, husband Martyn and Annie From


Annie joined me on Saturday Steps back in April

go via LINK to see it 


Annie and Tess didn't stop talking. 
Mom and Eileen were the same, what is it with girls!
The plan was to walk through the country park taking a dip in the river on the way and walk across the river in the sky!!


Eileen said "Annie doesn't like water"
Mmm, not sure that's right Eileen



Tess on one of her Zoomies!


I'm sure she's getting webbed feet



Tess and Annie, still talking!!



There it is the river in the sky!



126ft high
Yes we walked across it!!

We had to climb all the steps to get there.



Narrow boats waiting their turn to go across




We stopped for a drink a the pub right by the canal, just to steady our nerves



Their water had a lovely taste to it, like beef!!



Eileen had brought loads of treats that she shared out to the three of us, thanks Eileen


Tess some how ended up on Eileen lap!! 



Making our way to the aqueduct



Its 1,007ft(307m)long
11ft(3.4m) wide
5.25ft(1.60m) deep
126ft High


and no rail on the water side!!



Look how tiny that dog is



That's all the steps we had to climb




Keep walking don't look down.



Nearly half way across




There's not that much room



We made it to the other side, just got to walk all the way back!!



Can we hop on this boat to go back?



that's a no then!!





It feels like it was all a dream.




We had a lovely day, it did take some nerve to cross the aqueduct, Eileen's face was a picture when Mom said
 "We have to walk back across it" 
Well done Mom and Eileen both don't like heights.
 I think me,Tess and Annie helped them get across.




Eileen gave Mom a very special gift




Its a pottery Welsh Terrier.
Eileen's Mom and Dad always had Welsh Terriers, so she grew up with our breed.
Thank you so much, for giving us your treasured Welsh Terrier.
 We will look after it.



Eileen has a blog post about our day


Have a Good Week
