Paddles with an Anas acuta...... unashamedly biased toward the sea kayak of that name (actually the voyages of two boats, one 'traffic over gold', one 'quill')

Portsmouth Canoe Club Anglesey, late May Bank Holiday week

 People came and went during the week, but 27 club members took part, who needs Glastonbury? we were enjoying the festival atmosphere at the  'Alternative Outdoors' campsite.
 We took in the Straits,
 at slack water,
 more active flow,
 and admired the landmarks. Here is Nelson, reputed to be Anglesey's least visited monument as it is only visible from the sea.
 Rock hopping...
 races...
 rescues...

 (this one was in play with Nick Cunliffe)
 rocky beaches...
sandy beaches...
muddy beaches...
 caves...
 culture.
 Some of the party were finding the non-stop paddling tiring...

but the leader was always up for more! Hang on -who was that in the centre of the last picture? Surely not me.
