Canoeing

Dad had specially bought G a PFD (personal floatation device) so she could go canoeing up on the top dam.
So off went Dan, Tim and G..... with Dad keeping a close eye on them, and me, camera in hand shooting anything and everything.
And in case you're wondering Tim's at the back, Dan in the middle, G at the front, and yes, Tim and Georgie are sitting in cut down plastic chairs... Dan has the proper "fishing chair".
It could be deep in the heart of the Australian Jungle....
Georgie actually spent more time waving her paddle telling them where to go then using it in the water. Admittedly the canoe was stacked so that she could hardly reach the water ;o) but still.
Georgie had had enough at this stage so the boys are docking at the pontoon.


Grandad helping her out.
The boys paddled back to the launch point.
In the mean time Grandad and Georgie climbed through the jungle to get back to dry land.
She got down to serious bush bashing - a stick is her favourite toy down on the farm.
Grandad went for a bit of a paddle in his 'fishing chair'.
So that was canoeing for the day.
Inside the canoe - fishing chair folded down.

...erm, yes, Tim.
back down at the sheds.
