SAID:
Geoff
came into the city today, he kept checking the cricket score in hopes
of a huge Aussie upset, but it was he that ended up being upset I
think!
We
had a look around the Birmingham Library, quite a building, with an
outside garden terrace, one of the largest collections of Shakespeare
works in the world & a café.
Then
we spent a quiet hour on the Birmingham canals. Larger than the
Venice canal system apparently, though not nearly as scenic!
Back
at the BnB we relaxed the rest of the day away.

| Centenary Square, the War Memorial & the Library |

| Like Port Macquaire & it's Koalas, Birmingham has brightly coloured owls all over the place, painted by well known people, raising money for charity |
 |
| The Secret Garden in the Birmingham Library |
 |
| Cruising one of Birmingham's canals - a quiet way to travel |
 |
| One of the many canal-side pubs |

| Owl-Talk |
HE SAID:
The Birmingham canal cruise was not very scenic, giving me many opportunities to check the cricket scores. I had my hopes up until we were all out just before lunch. After that it was just a question of when England would win; we did not have enough runs to defend.
