It Must Be Wednesday!

Paddling is always on the cards on a Wednesday morning, for anyone from the Canterbury Sea Kayak Network, if they can come. Although it was overcast and drizzle was forecast, we actually had a relatively calm and rainfree paddle, with just a slight breeze. Cold? Well, it's not summer any more, but with one extra layer on top we were all fine. We're on Lyttelton Harbour here, circumnavigating King Billy Island, with Quail Island in the background. The aim was to land on a beach on King Billy, but the perfume from the roosting shags rather got up our noses, so it was over to Summerwine Beach on the Peninsula for our morning cuppa. Just four of us today, all women, and we had a great time!

There are two more images in Extras. One is of a rather photogenic group of shags that we paddled by, and then one of our group (you'll have to imagine me!) inside the same wreck that I photographed a while back, with one of our paddlers giving Kate Winslet a run for her money - Move Over Kate
