Verulamium, St Albans and Broxbourne (Part 2)
Continued from previous page.
In Broxbourne we were booked on a river trip. We had a leisurely two-hour cruise along the Lee Valley Park. Whilst we admired the scenery we also indulged in a scrumptious cream tea. The weather had been kind to us but shortly before we finished the cruise a heavy shower made those outside rush for cover inside the boat. We were soon on our way home again. Another perfect trip organised by Maureen.
