| There are many sights to see and people
to meet as we make our way around the canals. Traveling on the
canal is a slow paced activity as you typically travel no more than
3 to 4 miles per hour (speed limit is 4 MPH). This gives
plenty of opportunity to view the canal sights along the way.
After traveling across farm lands for extended periods and
entering a country or market town, the town offers a change of
activity, an opportunity to window shop, restock provisions,
mail a few post cards, and wash a few clothes. Occasionally a
canal will take you past an easy to reach tourist attraction such as
the centuries old and well known china manufacturer Wedgwood
or an historic landmark such as the Chirk
Castle.
