Warwick and a journey down the Canal

Since I attend the University of Warwick, one would assume that I live in Warwick. One would also assume that since there's a "w" in the middle of Warwick, one would pronounce it. Neither happens to be the case. Regardless, I live about twenty minutes, via bus, from the town/village of Warwick, home to one of England's most beautiful castles. I still haven't been inside--I manage to arrive at the castle about thirty minutes before closing time every time. Instead, I went for a mini jaunt around the high street areas in search of a book for one of my courses.

A few days later, while headed out for an angst filled run, I came across the canal in Leamington that leads to Warwick, Stratford, and if i were to run far enough, up to Liverpool. I found a pub, houses lining the canal, and most importantly, houseboats. I think i might be able to get used to the houseboat life.
