Little Venice

Not too far from Paddington Station in London is an area known as Little Venice, where houseboats line a canal in the space equivalent to two or three blocks long.


The canal runs between two parallel streets that are lined with apartments and houses.






In some places, the houseboats are docked two abreast.





Some of the houseboats have gardens of their own. Others have barbecue grills on the side, some have benches, some have bicycles.



It is all within a twenty-minute walk of our flat.
