Wednesday 27 December 2017 Cuttagee Lake

An earlish paddle was called for to avoid the wind forecast for later in the morning. T joined us for the paddle, paddling Ady so R&I took to Big Red, together again, after what seems ages :) S declined to join us, opting instead for trialing a new dessert so we could be the taste testers upon our return.
We were taking to the water at 7.55am, a tad ahead of schedule for once.

There was little to no wind to hinder the first part of the paddle

Heading across Wooleybutts Bay

And up the arm leading to Sunnysides bridge

The bridge to Sunnysides, where we pulled in for a snack and leg stretch

The arm continues on the other side of the bridge and looks inviting

Looking up toward Aafke's Lagoon

We then faced a stiff paddle back up the lake into an oncoming breeze that whipped up the water. However, once we turned into the straight leading to Little Cuttagee we could relax and let the wind blow us down into LC, where we had a sheltered paddle back to our start point, arriving back at 11.00am.
