Wind, rain and cold
Awakening this morning to the sound of rain on the tent, and then realising today wasn't going to be as tranquil as yesterday, we decided that we would all do our own thing.
Some guys went swimming (at the leisure centre) we decided to take Connor to Borthwen bbeach where he could get in his boat and get some practice.
I must admit, it was a little miserable down here today, I got Connor to wear my hat to try and keep the rain off him.
Just before we launched. The wind was offshore so I got him on the tow line to make sure he stayed with me.
Adele & Cerys well wrapped up! Nothing stops Cerys having a good dig in the sand!
We went out and around the little rock island in the bay, It was FREEZING! Connor's hands were nearly blue, had to get him out.
Still smiling though, he did well, hasn't forgotten how to paddle, its last August since he was on the water.
Looking good, just need some sun and a little shallow water to do a bit of coaching.
We went and got changed at the campsite, and then went to have some lunch at Morrisons (and a warm up).
Then when we came back - the sun came out, and with the wind still blowing we managed to get Cerys' kite flying!
It went well, and thats amazing for us, we can never get them to fly normally.
A very short paddle, I had another lap of the bay, but even my hands were numb.
Lets hope for more sun tommorow.
