After the exertions of yesterday, we
planned a leisurely drive down to Albany but had reckoned without
Kirsty's invitation to join her for an early swim on Port Beach while
Simon was kayaking.
As it turned out I ended up joining Simon with a
spare kayak because someone else dropped out. Only a small swell and
a couple of little breakers so launching was not too difficult – I
did get dumped by the waves a couple of times but eventually managed
to join the other paddlers.
Took a while to get settled but lots of
practice getting back on the kayak. Luckily I was out of range of Linda's camera.
After an hour or so, I almost
mastered the beaching until a wave broke behind me and tumbled me in
a heap with the kayak. Minor contusions and a bruised rib and it was
still not quite 07.00.
Was quite glad when we finished packing
and settled into the five hour drive south.
