Travels by Narrowboat - 'CHG's Excellent Adventure' - S10E04

Join Aslan & I as we continue south along the Oxford Canal. Soon I pass through a memorable area (for me), Hungerfield and where in Season One I moored for a few days and which was the first time the boaty way of life clicked into place.

Continuing on, I arrive at Newbold-On-Avon, where I moor for the night and the next day, pass through Rugby and the site of the 2017 Boat Tuber's summer BBQ, and eventually arrive at Hillmorton and it's 3 locks.

One of my favorite CHG episodes. No drama no hustle & bustle. Just laid back chug-chug through a green tunnel of relaxation. My pulse & attitude laid down.
And then we got the “Mystery of the Missing Lock”. 🤔

The way you describe how you’re traveling, sounds like sound wisdom. No need to hurry, take your time and enjoy. Safe travels Kevin.

Would think the 4-5 miles/day and mooring up for several days would make for a much more enjoyable pace. Sounds blissful.

The guitar riff for “69” cracked me up. Great episode!

Compared to your first few seasons, you look healthier and have "de-aged" Lol. Being roughly the same age as you, you have inspired me to "take it all in stride." Thank you.

It seems that you have now found the true meaning/pleasure in canal boating and life, which is to slow down and enjoy every second of it. There is only one life in this world Kevin, and it is unique for each one of us! I am very happy that you are slowing down and enjoying it. God bless you brother and may the All-Mighty grant you health and a long life to enjoy it and continue taking us along on these great adventures of yours! Cheers from sunny Puerto Rico!

I'm with you there on The Long Way Down/Round CHG! I watch it at least once a year I recon.

I Kevin a good vlog I remember you on this wen you fast ware on the canals is good won all for now 😊

The swan family treated you very well when they got out of the front of you to let Aslan cruise on by. I like how you explained about shaving and the lack of desire to do so and how that ties in with viewer comments. What a bit of serendipity, to finally pass by on the towpath the man with the dog named Aslan! I enjoyed every bit of this cruise. Thank you!

[tombowers]

love the reference to Long way around, it's an absolute favorite too. Obi Wan and Charlie running their bikes around the world with their stalwart camera guy in tow. Who among us doesn't wish we could do that? nice episode thanks Kevin

[kcsteeler]

Can't think of anything witty to say right now. But years ago I stubbled across you on Prime. Didn't know squat about narrowboats and the canal system. Guess you were "The Gateway Drug" to all this canal watching I been doing. Absolutely hooked.

[Dannyshort]

Another CHG new ‘un! The weekend has begun. Nice one Kevin.👍

[LindaIkuta]

Aslan was originally a Turkish name meaning "lion" and is often associated with strength, bravery, and royalty. I think CS Lewis used it in his book to infer the meaning. A great name for a boat.

Thanks for all your hard work bringing a bit of the canals to our homes.

[Balthazar]

Lately, Friday mornings have started with my watching the latest installment of CHG's travels, but... I slipped this weekend, and now am watching and starting my Saturday morning at the farm instilled with peaces and tranquility from Kevin's narrowboat travels. Thanks Kevin. Always a great pleasure.

[patbrandow]

For some reason, today's journey with you and Aslan felt like traveling with Mark Twain, but on a British canal rather than an American river. Absolutely lovely. The pace you're setting this season is perfect. Every day's an adventure of the most excellent variety. ❤
