At Great Falls, - one of Melli’s favorite places to go all year around - ( and I can see why ) we took the canal boat ride. This was a treat.
Transportation like it happened a hundred years ago, a boat, a canal and a lot of muscle power … mostly by women and mules.

I loved this Jientje...your photos gave me the sense of reall being there, on what looks like a perfect autumn day. I love the macro of the rope fibers too!
Enjoyed your photos of the canal and learned something too. Yes, what a beautiful day.
Wow. Just wow.
Gorgeous sequence of photos.
Flash 55 - Love
Great shots! If the horse drawn buggy is pulling the boat through the canal, why not just ride the buggy? LOL but it is amazing the strength and stamina the pioneers of the past had. They really endured a lot didn't they!
I remember taking this very same boat ride several years ago, it was fun. As usual, great pictures!
Beautiful Jientje, I felt as if I was along for the ride. I can see why this is one of Melli's favorite places.
Makes me feel like I was there & now I really want to be. How beautiful! The colors just make it more scenic.
Hi Jientje, I have just been catching up on all your travels, your photos really are "chicken soup for the eyes" :-). happy weekend, Kathy.
Wow! You've captured excellent pictures! A few more & you'd have a documentary.
Very beautiful shots! I can see why you mentioned it was photography heaven. Have a wonderful weekend :)
That looks very interesting ! I see you have started to show pictures of your stay with Melli, that's what I was waiting for ! It's now already 3 weeks that I am back in the rain.
what a lovely post - that would be so enjoyable to take that trip down the canal. You captured it beautifully.
It's hard to believe that was only a month ago. Now it is all dull and dreary...
how fun, and what great shots. they really tell a story
I would love to know where this is - I don't follow Melli but I think I should. Is this part of the Erie Canal? Great series of photos - as usual.
Oh what fun! It looks like a lot of work but very pretty and fun!
How picturesque that all is! But it looks hard and dangerous work.
Merry Christmas!
