Okanagan Lake - July 1st, 2010

July 1st, 2010

Tonight had another paddle with the HooDoo Adventure Club.

Here is a view from the beach at Marina Way in Penticton.






My kayak all ready to go.






The bunch of us ready for a paddling lesson.






We left from the beach at Marina Way in Penticton and paddled north up to 3 Mile Beach.

Lyndie gave all of us a paddling skills talk on the proper way to paddle a kayak. It was well received by everyone and we all practised our new, improved strokes as we paddled.






Some interesting cliff and shoreline.







Big bird watching our progress.








Paddle, Paddle, Paddle your kayak gently down the lake.






A look across the lake at the sun starting to go down.






A look northwest towards Giants Head.







A brief stop a 3 Mile Beach for a stretch and a drink.

Then back towards the Casino to take in the mini air show going on over the lake in front of the hotel. No pictures due to bumpy conditions and speed overhead.




Thanks for visiting and keep on paddling.
