Year 5 - Day 14

28Jun15

Today we took our kayaks for a run down the French Broad River. It was a nice sunny but cool day to spend a couple of hours going about seven miles downstream.

The water had some mild rapids in a lot of places, so we got to practice those for the first time. Sam was like a pro just zipping right over them, but our kayak seemed to drag on the rocks a lot, and we got stuck once. Guess we will have to seek out a little deeper water next time!

Our route took us along the backside of the Biltmore property, so we had a different view. We had a great time, and even got a little sunburn to boot!
