Lesson on Windermere

Today we had a private lesson with Windermere Canoe and Kayak , this gave us chance to receive some feedback on our techniques and learn some new skills. We also tried a peer to peer rescue with Tina playing the part of the person in the water (I’m going to have to take on that part soon). It took a long time before she was able to get back in the kayak. We need to practice that a lot more until we get slick at it. We did not use our own kayaks today but used hire ones from the shop, I think this convinced us both that we have made the right decision with the ones we brought. The kayaks we had were OK but they both had things we did not like compared to our own. All in all it was another great day and Paul , our instructor, was really helpful.
