Our first 'canoe camp' practice

If it didn't say 'river' on the map, I'd swear this was a drainage ditch...

No it's not a refugee camp...Thanks to our friends at The Ferryboat Inn in Thorganby for their kind hospitality and excellent selection of real ales!

Certified mad

We are mad and now have the certificates to prove it, well it's actually the British Canoe Union Level 1 certificate to be precise, so now we're qualified to canoe (or are we qualified to drown? - who know's). Quite an emotional moment, well for some anyway...
