I’ve put up a few posts waxing lyrical about my Wednesday Night Paddles, and so I thought this week I’d take my Go Pro along, set it to take a photo every 30 seconds and see what comes out .
It took nearly 300 photos, but here’s a slightly briefer summary if you want to scroll down and see a Wednesday night paddle in 3 minutes or less …
Everyone getting ready … |
Some less ready than others … |
Ah yes, the waiting around for 6pm |
Obviously a new person … we don’t stretch and warm up … crazy stuff. |
Finally we notice that the water is actually 50 metres from where we’ve all put our boats |
Two boats are quicker than one .. |
Now we’re ready to go |
Though some are still chatting and getting ready … |
We’re off … |
Oh, I’m in my ski because my knee injury has flared up |
Now we’re off |
And I’m quickly in the rear of the pack. |
Slipping further behind … |
Some late starters going by … |
More late starters … |
Then it’s just me and Janet enjoying the evening … (This week as a “Come and Try It” week) |
Oh yea, to think I could be home in front of TV right now .. |
Cartwright Point where the “intro” paddlers turn around. |
Turning Point |
… and heading home |
Meeting another late starter on his way out … |
I have no idea what I was doing here, but I seem to be missing a paddle. |
Evening colours |
No one’s in a rush to get home … |
Little bit of chop as we get past Sandy Bay Point |
Couldn’t resist a short downwind dash. Janet’s waiting for me. |
Almost home. |
The front paddlers catching us on the way back after they went to Crayfish Point |
Back on land … and the tides in! |
One last carry … |
Another great night’s paddling … now for pizza. |
