There are times you need to monkey around. Even if you’re not in an area specifically to see monkeys, they could still be there! So many times we saw the ‘Beware of Monkeys’ sign after we left a forest! #TravelSky #TravelAddicts #Travel #LoveTwoTravel #photography #Japan #Monkey

Easily as interesting as the ancient villages in the new modern tech district in Tokyo. Akihabara is a famous tech district in Tokyo, Japan, known for its electronics, anime, and manga! #TravelSky #TravelAddicts #Travel #LoveTwoTravel #photography #Tokyo #Japan #Akihabara

The bowing deer of Nara in Japan are like relatives. Some are polite and gracious, appreciating the wafer treats. Others will knock you over to get to one! The town itself is an incredible experience!!! #TravelSky #TravelAddicts #Travel #LoveTwoTravel #photography #Nara #Japan #Bowingdeer

The Shinkyo Bridge stands at the entrance to Nikko's shrines and temples and it does not disappoint. The surrounding traffic is a heavy, and there is an admission to stand on the bridge, but it’s worth both! #TravelSky #TravelAddicts #Travel #LoveTwoTravel #photography #Japan #Nikko

It’s easy to find classic red British telephone boxes around tourist areas, but Wendy and I found this in a small village off the Oxford Canal, called Lower Heyford. #narrowboat #canal #ukcanals #uk #LoveTwoTravel #photography #Britain

Feeling that HarryPotter vibe? Maybe you’re at Christ Church College in Oxford? Christ Church College provided not only the inspiration for its world, but the location for many Harry Potter scenes. #TravelSky #TravelAddicts #Travel #LoveTwoTravel #photography #HarryPotter #Oxford

Who doesn't love a sunset? 😍 This is a view of the Lichfield Canal at Borrowcop Locks Canal Park. #UKCanals #Lichfield #Staffordshire

Can we consider this narrowboat prep? It’s was cold morning in Texas, starting my day in downtown Austin with a temperature of 24 F degrees (-4C) and very, very light snow. 👀 Sure we’re not frozen in, nor do we have to navigate muddy towpaths, but it’s a good start! #narrowboat #canal #ukcanals

Is it time for a revival of inland waterways freight? IWA's Freight Group chair Gerry Heward explains the opportunities and challenges. #ukcanals #ukwaterways #logistics

Some say you have to rough it when constant cruising on the English canals. We say, maybe not. #narrowboat #canal #ukcanals #uk #LoveTwoTravel #OxfordCanal #Wine #Photography

Just outside of the famous Gyeongbokgung Palace is Seoul, South Korea is the actual building you can see for miles. And yes, it’s just as majestic and beautiful in person! #TravelSky #TravelAddicts #Travel #LoveTwoTravel #photography #Seoul #Palace

Absolutely awesome. Seriously, there should be nothing else put on a dog tag after this.

“Take Me With You” w/ a fresh start to BlueSky, figured I’d play the hits outta the gate. Crew4 NASA Launch. Super fortunate to have eyes on this piece, awards, and showcases around the globe. Hoping to interact and find some new #photographers to spark inspiration. #photography #nasa #landscape

The Rousham Eyecatcher is located near Steeple Aston and was built as sham ruin to give the impression that the grounds of Rousham House extended further than they did. Even better, is a short and very enjoyable walk from the Oxford Canal! #narrowboat #ukcanals #uk #photography

There’s no such thing as a bad picture of Mount Fuji. However, there is a challenge catching it in perfectly clear weather! #TravelSky #TravelAddicts #Travel #LoveTwoTravel #photography #Japan #MountFuji

Now then you romantic lot… Much love on Valentines Day from all at Towpath Talk x ❤️

We know it’s not Christmas, but all is not well with our fur baby so it’s nice to look at those pics where he’s still young and curious. We all need a picture of hope occasionally, right? #TravelSky #TravelAddicts #Travel #LoveTwoTravel #photography #cat #furbaby

Please sir, may we have more? Insatiable swans on the Oxford Canal. #narrowboat #canal #ukcanals #uk #LoveTwoTravel #Oxford #Swan

The Texas State Capitol in Austin Texas is so steeped in its ornate history, the decorative door hinges are still in use and intriguing to look at. And, they’re on every door!! #TravelSky #TravelAddicts #Travel #LoveTwoTravel #photography #Texas #History

'Go and live on the canals,' they said, 'You'll love it.' 'You'll be living so close to great outdoors,' they said, 'Living alongside nature, close to the elements.' 'It's the perfect sort of life for you,' they said. And do you know what? They were ABSOLUTELY RIGHT! 😀 #ukcanals #naturewriting 🌍

All politics aside, the Texas State capitol in Austin Texas is one of the most remarkably beautiful building you can tour. It’s the sixth-tallest state capitol and one of several taller than the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C. #TravelSky #TravelAddicts #Travel #LoveTwoTravel #photography

Bridge 232, Wolvercote on the Oxford Canal. Can’t you just feel the narrowboat moment of zen? #narrowboat #canal #ukcanals #uk #LoveTwoTravel #Oxford #Wolvercote

The cemetery’s in Savannah Georgia are worth a visit. Just avoid the summer heat! #TravelSky #TravelAddicts #Travel #LoveTwoTravel #photography #Savannah #Cemetery

While Oxford may get all the academic spotlight, #Cambridge can more than hold its own, and you can punt there! Fun fact Cambridge came about because the students in Oxford were getting too rambunctious for the educational types! #TravelSky #TravelAddicts #Travel #LoveTwoTravel #photography

Lakes of glaciers. Welcome to Iceland! There are of course the tourist spots that feature these incredible sights, or you can find them huddled in a national park! #TravelSky #TravelAddicts #Travel #LoveTwoTravel #photography #Iceland #Glacier

It’s hard not to take a frame worthy picture in #Japan. One of the many temples at the Nikko UNESCO Heritage site. Travel #TravelSky #TravelAddicts #Travel #LoveTwoTravel #photography #Nikko #UNESCO #shrine

BSS inspection (like a boat 'MOT') on my narrowboat today and it only failed on a few easy to fix points 😀 Didn't like the chandlery signage so I designed a sheet of boat safety signs - open source download at www.nick-hayward.co.uk/2025/02/mode... #narrowboat #bss #openSource #design

Sunset in #Dominica A beautiful island with few things to do, but each of them alone are worth the visit. #TravelSky #TravelAddicts #Travel #LoveTwoTravel #photography #sunset #island

Hamilton Pool is a natural pool located about 23 miles west of Austin. It was created when the dome of an underground river collapsed from massive erosion thousands of years ago. It’s a popular summer swimming spot for Austin visitors and residents. #TravelSky #TravelAddicts #Travel #photography

Riding in a hot air balloon is amazing! Extreme silence broken by the occasional fury of hot flames thunderously pushing heat into the balloon above. Even then you feel you’re at natures grace with wind taking you where it will. #TravelSky #TravelAddicts #Travel #LoveTwoTravel #photography

Just came across this moment while editing or #Seoul #Japan travel video. The changing of the guard at Gyeongbokgung Palace, the largest of the Five Grand Palaces built by the Joseon dynasty. #TravelSky #TravelAddicts #Travel #LoveTwoTravel

Wendy really found her #narrowboat confidence towards the end of our #canal adventure, enjoying more than her fair share of time on the tiller as we headed south on the #OxfordCanal to return the boat. The entire adventure is on our YouTube channel! #ukcanals #uk #LoveTwoTravel

Letter X of a daily #A-Z #Kruger photo challenge… X for X-rated. The female baboon must have been doing a really good job grooming this guy. 😂 #Africanwildlife #Safari #travel

Funny thing about this, actually owned a Pinto when first moving to the states. When ppl told me about it reputation I just shrugged my shoulders. Loved the car. I would never drive nor ride in a cyber truck. 🤷‍♂️

The Northern Lights shining under the full moon in Lapland, Finland—an unforgettable sight. #Travel #Landscape #Winter #Nature #Explore #Adventure

It was poetic that Wendy steered our rental #narrowboat so perfectly down through the Somerton Deep Lock on the #OxfordCanal after it exhausted her when she operated the lock on the way up, just the day before!!! Check out our YouTube video for the full story! #canal #ukcanals #uk #LoveTwoTravel
