About this picture

My brother and I drove hours out of our way to come see this place, and I’m glad we did. Having a hire van meant we could get to places that would be impossible to get to via public transport; this was one of those places. We hired a paddle boat for an hour and paddled down the river. It was unbelievably relaxing, if not slightly romantic. Next time I’ll take my girlfriend not my brother.
