Cars, Motorbikes, Waterfalls, Steam Trains and a Wedding.

Another packed lunch in a back pack and we set off up the canal towards Horseshoe Falls. First we came across the end of the navigable section of the canal.

With the marina alongside.

Permanent stage for the  Llangollen International Eisteddfod.

Llangollen Motor Museum.

An original “Bucket & Chuckit” Elsan.

Chainbridge Hotel.

A rather sad looking chainbridge, in need of much repair.

The end of the canal feeder is in sight.

Horseshoe Falls.

Just beyond the falls is the Church of St. Tysilio Llantysilio.

Then the walk back to Llangollen.

Steam trains at Llangollen station.

This was a wedding train, with full wedding party, and even the wedding cake was on-board.

We moved to stand on the footbridge over the line, and got chatting to what was the groom, and low-and-behold he is a boater too, and knew all about Hadar, what a small world. Later this evening the whole wedding party is having a trip on the trip boat from Llangollen to Pontcysyllte aqueduct and back. What a great idea for a different sort of wedding.
