Rachel goes for the paddle in the air style approach - watch out for branches!
Alex takes a two pack approach - balance, but can he see his feet?
Heading down Assay Buttress to the Shoalhaven
Looking downstream
All pumped up and ready to go - a mix of Explorers and Alpackas
Different styles - Alpacka with paddle, Explorer 200 with paddle...
...Explorer with hand paddles!
Smiffy on a "rapid". They mostly involved getting out an dragging the boats
Alex enjoying a jump
The one good rapid of the trip - not sure if the look on Toni's face is excitement or terror!
Alex seems to be enjoying himself!
Smiffy makes it look easy
Sue taking the relaxed approach
Heading towards the Blockup Gorge
Coming through the Gorge
Below the Gorge, the cliffs of Spring Creek Canyon in the background
Happy Birthday! Smiffy turning about 7 or so!
Rachel and I need to head back to Sydney early Sunday so we take our farewells
