Back on the water!
FRIDAY, DECEMBER 05, 2008
Left Teal Flat at around 1pm, and paddled into Mannum. It was a 30km paddle, but a really tough paddle becuase it was the first day back on the river after a 3 day rest, and also we had a really strong head wind. The Young Husband straight between Teal Flat and Mannum is notorious as a long open straight that's really tough to navigate. That made it difficult.
We got into camp and met some peole from United for a Wish, then we were fortunate that John Riddell and Snowy Carter had arranged for us to be their guests at the Mighty River Run, it was a great night!! It's fantastic what Novita and the Mighty River Run are doing! We had decent food and a glass of wine, and then went off to bed!
Thanks so much to Uncle Col and Aunty Barb for putting me up for 3 days. They gave me the most superb food and really looked after me, so thank you so much!
