Weeeeeee Splash

After checking the forecast the evening before and seeing that it was going to be bad weather again the next day, we decided to go for another water based activity. Having swam down a river a few days before that we decided it was time for something new. So Canyoning it was. To those who have no idea what it is - you put on a wet suit, a harness and a helmet and swim/jump/squeeze your way down a steep gorge in the river.

I decided it s time to finally pull my finger out and use my Xmas present from Lara - my helmet cam. So above is a quick edit of the video I took. No music just a quick hash so people can get an idea of what it involves. I shall make an effort to take more video and spend some time editting them to a higher level next time.

Matt from the outset decided it was not for him as he is not to keen on water. Lara and Emma where nervous, Lara not being keen or comfortable in water did brilliantly jumping of every thing, Pulling some hilarious faces in the cold water. Emma was a hero and jumped off everything and squeezed though everything. Scott and I both loved it and are keen to go and try bigger and harder canyons. We have been told we shall be doing it alone......
