Kayaking Christchurch
We had a quiet morning and then got ready to go kayaking. We had decided to go to Christchurch and launch at the quay. The traffic over was better than we thouht as there was a running event on. We managed to park very near to the launch site which made carrying the kayaks easier! We paddled up the River Stour to Iford bridge. That is as far as kayakers are allowed to go ont that section, I think due to fishing. It was a lovely paddle but nicer on the quieter section further up where fewer boats were going. We stopped at Iford bridge and had lunch before returning back down stream. The tide had turned on the return journey so there was less flow helping our down stream journey! A lovely trip and definitely one to do again. Back at home we had the job of washing the boats and kit down and get the washing machine on!
