The Route Taken	Waiting for the crew to arrive	Getting the anchor ready	Dockside warehouses have been replaced by more modern buildings
Old & New	Cruising past the Excel exhibition centre	The 'Transporter' Bridge	More Old & New
There are still some old warehouses/mills left	NB Earnest turns into the Pontoon dock with floating hotel in the background	Messing about on boats!	In the Pontoon Dock
Returning from the pontoon dock (Royal Victoria Dock)	It's lonely out there! (Royal Albert Dock)	Not often planes take off alongside you!	Turning towards the lock past University of East London
Aeroplanes landing over our heads!	Entering the lock - It's big!	Another plane lands	Went for a spin around the other (King George V) dock
Only needed the gates to make a short lock	Commercial Traffic!	The gates open ...	...and they're off!
Looking back into the lock	Approaching the Woolwich Ferry crossing ...	... on towards Tate & Lyle's refinery	More Woolwich Ferry ...
Both working today	Big boats!	Barrier in maintenance mode	Looking back towards Tate & Lyle
Passing through the Thames Barrier	Another View of the Thames Barrier	Doing our best to avoid structures in the river	As we got to the Dome we tuned into Bow Creek ...
At Trinity Buoy Wharf - London's only Lighthouse (Not used)	Pura factory on Bow Creek	Docklands Light Railway in background	The other side of the Pura factory
Looking towards Canary Wharf	Bow Lock - We decide on a side Trip to Three Mills Pool	The Lea Navigation from the Tidal sectiion	Three Mills Pool on the Tidal section
The Motley Crew	Still on Tidal section by District Line bridge	It was dark by the time we had got up the Lea onto the Hertford Union Canal	Atmospheric shot passing Victoria Park
The junction with the Regents Canal below Old Ford Road locks	:: return_trip_from_excel_20th_january_2009 ::
