At the Youth Hostel
 

 
How does this thing work...?
 

 
The cooking team

 
Enjoying the view

 
The washing up team

 
Get set...

 
Stand by...

 
Go!

 
The shocking weather of day 1



 
End of day one

 
You cannot 'run' in a campsite, you can only 'ran' because it's past tents

 
Setting off on day 2


 
How's it going?








 
The well organised campsite of the second night

 
It's a bit early



 
The friendly duck who came and said hello while I was waiting for the second group to turn up





 
Are we there yet?

Gold paddle practice on the Dart










 
Only a few swims today, one spectacular one where the canoe was airborne but didn't quite make the full barrel role before landing upside down. A superb day to be out on the river.
