Push the canoe out

Today is Canadian Civic holiday and we took our canoe out fo its' first trip of the year.  The trip started at low tide from a beach near us, and lasted for two hours return.  We stayed close to the shore, about 30 to 60 meters for safety, as the ocean waves can be unpredictable, even at good times. Also, a canoe is not as stable as a kayak in sea waters.  

Just want to share a few pictures, taken by my Wilbur phone, as below. 

1. Transportion (Hardy the car is 20 yrs old;Yelly the canoe is even older)

2. Here it is (Yelly the canoe)

3. Big house on the shore

4. Brave paddlers

5. Break time at the middle point

6. Kids and Geese
