Catherine has been wanting to paddle the bit of the Menai Strait from Beaumaris to Menai Bridge for a long time - so, as she was about to go into YG for total knee replacement, we thought Sunday was the ideal opportunity.
Weather was pretty dull at first, but began to brighten as we passed Bangor Pier.
and was very warm and sunny by the time we got to Porth Daniel.
Butties and tea (I know, this is a regular theme), and then a relaxed paddle through the swellies (it is all in the timing) and up the strait to Moel Y Don.
Couple of interesting moments with various powered craft who did not seem to have much of a grasp of the IRPCS (International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea).
About 12k paddled.
Later, time to sit round the recycled hot water cylinder.
