Speed River Paddle Guelph to Cambridge 12km

Denielle and Tim have been wanting to paddle the Speed River for awhile now and when I research it, facebook people tend to say it's too shallow so I discourage them. Well, we finally did it and IT WAS AWESOME! I was really worried we'd be walking half of it but it was nothing like that, we only spent a few minutes pulling our boats :) We put in at Municipal St. and stopped at Blackbridge, but then felt like paddling a bit more so went down to the dam and back. It was really windy during the last section of the paddle but I wanted to see how fast I could make it to the dam and back so Tim and I paddled hard til we ran out of steam. We made it to the dam in about 20ish minutes. We were a bit slower on the way back even though the wind was at out backs.

Tim's 2nd week off in JUNE

So much catching up to do! Monday we paddled downtown Galt with Genevieve and Jonathan and Niamh babysat the kids. There are lots of photos on Facebook.

We hiked about 4km and it took 1:46. Note to self... Go LEFT. Wednesday we went to Rockwood and hiked up to the caves and then kayaked for the afternoon. It was beautiful. Thursday we spent the day in Elora with Denielle and the kids. It was beautiful down in the gorge but going to the conservation area was kinda lame. I'd love to go back and just hang out down in the river in the town. It was fun. The Gorge hike at Elora Gorge Conservation Area was 7.26km and it took us 3:19. It would have taken way longer if we had let the kids stop and play more but I wanted to be done. It was not enjoyable for me because we were beside a fence the whole time. I u
