BONUS VIDEO! - NOT A VLOG! - BOW-CAM BEAUTIFUL Relaxing Cruise into Leicester Narrowboat Canal Life

[@workingboat]

It feels much better when there is no background music, you get a more pleasing effect of a relaxed time and pace. x

[@FloatingOurBoat]

Some people love the music and some prefer the natural sound, we try to please everyone

[@smnangle]

just turn off the sound on your own device

[@KarenSFrancis]

Thank you for this. After a weekend of anger and sorrow and fury here in the US, this was what I needed during my treadmill time. I love music but the birds and Fran calling the dogs was a sweet break. Thank you so much.

[@shirleylynch7529]

Beautiful cruise. Just what we need to unwind and relax in this hectic world. So calming and refreshing. Thank you

[@FloatingOurBoat]

That is what we hoped. Glad you enjoyed it

[@sissysimpson792]

I’m stopping this so I can watch Sunday morning while drinking my coffee see you tomorrow

[@JISJ1964]

Love the Blackbirdsong in the first lock. Meeting Dun Working in this film too, Patrick and Eileen is another of the couples I love to follow around the canals!

[@juneprince-iles8390]

Dear Rich and Fran. We were so delighted to watch this unusual video you made for us, it was so refreshing, loved it. We live in a hectic and anxious world and this video is quite an antidote to all that. Thank you for your kindness and thoughtfulness towards all your viewers. With love and appreciation June & Steve xxx

[@FloatingOurBoat]

So glad you found it a relaxing escape. That is all we could ask for x

[@jamesbrashear1664]

Nice unobstructed view of the canal. Won't hurt my feelings if you show more videos like this!

[@888buzzz]

Excellent video!!! Very relaxing and it was nice to see an uninterrupted lock process. More like this please. Good music selection. I liked the music.

[@sianwarwick633]

Super peaceful. Love the birdsong, and the music coming in

[@wendellsmith750]

I enjoyed watching ALL of your bonus (not a vlog) video - while I ate supper.

[@garycapson6713]

Now this was very nice. Relaxing cruse with just a hint of music. Excellent...........well done. Stay safe you 4.

[@FloatingOurBoat]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@philliphammond399]

Hi Fran and Rich, how wonderful our British landscape is, marvellous thank you.

[@terialamano7908]

Thank you, thank you, thank you for a wonderful cruise on your bow. I love these peaceful cruises with the glorious music. They fulfill something in me.

[@FloatingOurBoat]

Glad you find them relaxing

[@tombell4765]

So beautiful and calming, whether there's some accompanying music or Fran calling Archie! Thank you.

Ha Ha!. How many times did I have to tell him???

[@catherinestevens7314]

Thank you for this video, just a nice gentle glide through the countryside.

[@jaynecopland]

What a beautiful, quiet canal. Lovely trip. Loved all of it!

[@FloatingOurBoat]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@oldfart6318]

Wow so restful. I began watching at a time of high family tension and only got as far as the first lock and promptly fell asleep. I'll try again tomorrow.

[@FloatingOurBoat]

That's good enough for us. Hope your problems get sorted.

[@littleoldme205]

This was so peaceful and calm, with a bit of Pat & Eileen thrown in to boot 🤓 thank you both so much. Very much enjoyed.

[@FloatingOurBoat]

Yes, that was a bit of a surprise for us too

[@richardpetts8266]

Hi Rich & Fran, this video is so wonderful, relaxing, birds singing, I just love it, great idea, camera at the front, please keep it up and I love the music, it all gives me a big lift while stuck at my stove after work drinking wine, thank you, enjoy your weekend, best wishes Rich & Karen xx

[@FloatingOurBoat]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@lynettecoates4272]

This was bliss...made me feel I was back onboard my boat!! Much needed vlog! Xx

[@FloatingOurBoat]

so glad you enjoyed it!

[@ddview3067]

Well it’s creeping ever closer to 100F here in south Texas, so the Air Con is working hard… what a nice respite to watch that lovely video. Thanks for letting us come along.

[@FloatingOurBoat]

Hope it helped you cool down

[@carolrayk]

That was different. I kept thinking, when is he going to pick up Fran and the dogs. I like the music spaced through out. There should always be music in ones life. Boy, Fran is a fast walker!!!

[@FloatingOurBoat]

Ha Ha, it didn't seem that fast a walk.

[@merietgenealogy]

Very peaceful, tranquil and relaxing.

[@FloatingOurBoat]

Thank you

Canal mindfulness, where's the wine?

[@DBarnim]

So peaceful and enchanting, have to be honest I began to relax and doze off. Quality of your video is superb are you using GoPro 10?

[@FloatingOurBoat]

Thos was all shot on the Osmo Action Camera

[@Lumadonajp]

Do you have other video's like this? I have this one on daily when I study.

[@FloatingOurBoat]

Ah thank you, glad you enjoy it. We may do more like this in the future. Good luck with your studying.

[@Acapulc941]

Thank you for the absolute serenity. Sigh. You are the best. Leigh

[@FloatingOurBoat]

You are so welcome

[@vebetka8333]

Do you add your own music? If so, I loved the beginning track.

[@FloatingOurBoat]

Rich spends a long time searching for music for our videos. There is nearly always a list of music used in the video description

[@leed206]

Wish we had something like canals here (Australia), not enough water tho and too much heat.

[@FloatingOurBoat]

...and too many crocodiles 😁

[@grahamlewis6062]

Lovely, and we had pleasant music to enjoy too 🌟🌟. ( would love to know what Archie found ! ) 😀. Joan

[@FloatingOurBoat]

Who knows! He is always snuffling around for something

[@glenngent9505]

Rich that tune you were whistling what was the song I've heard it before but can't remember what it went like

[@FloatingOurBoat]

Ha ha. I had to re-watch. It’s Baby I’m a want you by Bread. 👍

[@anthonymccabe7800]

That was beautiful, thank you very much. How clear the water is on that canal.

This section of canal is interspersed with river so it stays quite clean

[@vandemon1822]

🙈 Hi Fran and Rich I’ve put a deposit on a boat we’re going tomorrow to look at it! How do I get the boat to Birmingham from Gloucester and Sharpness Canal. Do I need to get on the river Severn 🙈👍

[@FloatingOurBoat]

Congratulations. You need to get some canal maps. There are many on line maps you could look at

[@jonnyjones5201]

What happened to narrowboat experience?

[@FloatingOurBoat]

We don't know, They put a good bye video up recently

[@mikeg3293]

Better without the music. We have wall to music everywhere in this world, every shop every outlet. Peace and quiet is a rare item.

[@FloatingOurBoat]

So many people love the music we can't please everyone. I guess you can always turn the sound off. ☺

[@dennispike9869]

Hi there were can I find or Wii you. Send me how to make milk hey it's Dennis and sue pike from south Africa I was born in blandford forum Dorset any connection love to you both dennis

[@FloatingOurBoat]

I will be adding the oat milk recipe to our website in the next few days

[@borderreiver3288]

ok if you do not want background music but at least have the sound of the engine chugging along....too unnatural with no sounds at all.....

[@FloatingOurBoat]

The camera is at the front of the boat so what you have are the relaxing sounds of water and nature in between the music

[@davidfinch5062]

I'm sorry to say that this is the only one of your vlogs/videos that I have had to turn off mid viewing. When it started I thought great, this is going to be like the one uploaded by CountryHouseGent. All was going so well until the muzak kicked in. Yes, I appreciate some viewers like it and that you cannot please everybody, but for me, it was intrusive and unnecessary. Nice picture though.

[@FloatingOurBoat]

As you say we can't please everyone and if you look at the comments, so many people love the music.

[@Dizzyj555]

Terrible music,

[@FloatingOurBoat]
