Back on flat waters today and our usual paddling haunt of Coniston Water. After yesterdays little sea trip today was about enjoying the paddle but trying to get some miles under our belts in the kayaks.
We set off from Brown Howe and staying on the west side of the lake we paddled the 7km to the north end without any problems. We had a lunch stop at the north end before paddling back on the east shore. During the return journey the wind got up and at times it was a little bit of a battle into the wind. Although we have paddled up and down the lake many times in an open canoe today was the farthest we have paddled in our own kayaks.
Before finishing the trip today we practiced a little bit of contact towing.
