A small, select group of paddlers - a number of others being occupied
with a conflicting social event. David P, Mark, Carole, Richard and Paul
all came along, and we certainly set some Club records! Saturday morning
- Paul turned up at 08:30, and we were on the water at 10.15, finishing
a first
run
(from the
campsite to Bala), and with the boats loaded back on the car ,by 12
noon! And plenty of time for lunch at the Tryweryn centre café,
followed by a full second run, from the chipper to Bala. Sunday morning
- we (Paul,
Richard
and David P) were on the
water even earlier, at the chipper by 09:40! Carole and David P then
took the Canadian down from the campsite to Bala (with surprisingly,
just one out-of-boat experience) - and we made it to
Bala
by about
1pm. Age, stiffness and bruises (I speak for myself at least) meant that
the early start could mean an early finish, and we all left Bala by about
3pm. With a small group, unfortunately picture-taking opportunities don't
so readily arise. These pictures were however taken at Bala Mill at lunchtime
on Sunday.
