We could not have asked for a better day. A good crowd to see us off this morning including our MP Tim Farron, Kendal Mayor John Wilshaw, Rotary President Pat and we had a "cry" wishing us Bonne Voyage from Richard Mattews Kendal Town Crier in full regalia. Lovely Autumn sunshine, flocks of Kingfishers a great packed lunch. In short a fabulous day's paddling. We now know why we put in all the miles of hard training. Met by Ian at Garstang who already had the stew cooking. I hope you all feel sorry for us. No Wifi here so I am having to do this from my phone. Hopefully pictures will follow
