Nice shots DA.    That's one way to beat the ongoing heat wave.  Interesting colors on the canoes.

Cool shots, hot weather

Brings back memories. Tent and camping gear shoved onto the internal cavity. Camera in pelican case on the back and off for an adventure. On one adventure I must have invited about a million sandflies (small black winged biting menaces!) and circumnavigated a big back country lake over about 5 days. Every time I came to shore I was lunch!

Thanks for the proof I needed to dislike the idea of camping.

My pleasure. Steady drizzle here this morning. Best kind of rain for the environment.  No good for droning

You're very welcome DA.    Lots of the canoes I see locally have such bland colors so I guess that is why the two canoes in the shot stood out so well.

A lot of the old ones here tend to be sanded bland colours but sometime you can spot a real cracker.

You sure can as attested by the 2 you found and photographed.  

Nice top downs!

thanks Peter,   Reminds me,  how did you get on with your boat?

You're welcome.
We left it in Sweden.
Our neighbors had an inflatable canoe and that was 100% more fitting for us.
We did try, but rowing was not our 'thing'.
So we gave it away to one of the employees of the campsite.

Yes, if all goes according to plan, we will get one in return next year since they never used it.

Not confirmed yet.
Nope.
We like it there.
And it's a good compromise with the wife's condition.

Well you have plenty of time to think about it before you need to book it.
