Kayaking

Weekend in a kayak

Image 8 Comments

Despite some rain it turned out to be a great trip to Lurö.

Started with nice weather (not rain), about 5km to “Bahallen” , set the tent up and had a wonderful evening with no wind. The following morning started with rain but it stopped in the afternoon when we went to “Lurö” 6km. After a almost sunny day and a good night sleep we jumped in our kayaks and went to “Vithall”, a tiny island with a little house who are always open to visit, like a museum. Then we went back (with rain) to Ekenäs there we started the whole trip.

Yes, my english are like this. No improvements there. 🙂

WPC: Victory

Despite the tragic in Paris in my memory, I choose my own victory I did a couple years ago.

I had long yearned to start in “Dalsland Canoe Marathon”, a canoe / kayak race that goes in four lakes (you have to run a little between the lakes too). 🙂
The distance is 55km, and you paddle in a wonderful nature.
The premiere was in 2011 and I also competed in 2012 and in 2013.
It is a victory every time you cross the finish line.

It’s awesome when 600-700 paddlers start in the morning in a glassy lake
