Introduction


Hi everyone @LivingUKTaiwan here with today's edition of the #TravelDigest. Today we'll be going on a canal ride around UK, take a stroll along the Big Apple, New York, and do another walkabout in a totally different location, a little village in UK with a population of only 400. Enjoy.


All featured posts are visible on the Editors Choice Map and upvoted by @pinmapple, @blocktrades, @theycallmedan and the curation trail. For more travel digests check out #traveldigest.


Our winners today 🍍


🥇 From The Shropshire Union Canal to the Llangollan Canal - Narrowboat Journey Bound for Wales by @scubahead

" Each boat that we pass I wonder who lives on it? What do they do? I wonder what it's like inside, as I try and have a peek. Quite often I find myself looking at someone looking right back at me and this is usually met with a smile and a wave. The boating community is very friendly and I think it is widely accepted we are all a bit nosy"

🥈 The view from the Brooklyn Bridge over the skyline of New York and a walk on Brighton Beach by @katrin-lux

" The Brooklyn Bridge is probably one of the most famous bridges in the world and the skyline was breathtaking. It connects the boroughs of Brooklyn and Manhattan and is the oldest bridge over the East River (it was completed in 1883). Before it was completed, people use ferries to cross the river. It was the longest suspension bridge in the world for about 20 years!"

🥉 St. Mary's Derwen. North Wales by @grindle

" The Preaching Cross, common during the Middle Ages, this example dates from the beginning of the 15th Century. A time when small hamlets were unable, without a wealthy benefactor being around to build them a church. Priests would travel the land, the villagers would gather round, and listen to well; what? marriages and baptisms also took place. ."
