Thursday 15 July 2021 Bermagui River

 We had made arrangements to go up to the Shoalhaven River for 3 days paddling this week, however due to Covid restrictions our trip had to be cancelled, so it seemed appropriate to fit in another paddle, especially as the weather was still being kind to kayakers.

As the decision to paddle was only finalised this morning it was a female only affair - L had arranged a mate date - chisel sharpening and messing about in a wooden boat.

After meeting up at the bridge boat ramp we launched at 11.45am and headed upstream on the last of the incoming tide.

Under an overcast sky we slid through the glassy clear water with ease and the pics can speak for themselves. Suffice to say it was a balm in this soul battering time.













Performing an unconventional exit when we stopped for lunch at 1.00pm.


50 minutes later we took to the water again to make our way back downstream.
