2008.37.130 - Pool It!

It's dark out, it's cold, it's windy. It may even rain. A perfect time to go kayaking -- in a pool!
Richard, Louise, Paula and I spent this evening practising at Crystal Pool.

Richard was the first in the pool, and the first to go over.

We practised our sculls, bracing, wet exits and rescues. I worked on hip flicks on the side of the pool, while Paula concentrated on doing scoop rescues. Richard worked on scrambles, while Louise practised her paddle float self-rescue.

And we all got too much chlorinated water up our noses! But it was a fun evening!
