Six paddlers enjoyed another brilliant morning this time on the Moruya River. We launched at Yarragee and paddled as far as the water level would permit. Once again we were treated to lovely reflections on the water.

Paddling up river we were able, for a while to take advantage of the incoming tide which turned before we reach our destination giving some strong, swirling currents.

Morning tea and lunch were taken on sandy beaches. During lunch the water receded making it a challenge for those of us not wise enough to leave their kayaks in deeper water. The result of this mistake afforded the group much amusement when one of the party got ‘too close and cosy with the wet, soggy sand’.

With chillier temperatures and a weakening sun strength coming up, we will soon take a winter break.
