<p><b>New page</b></p><div>Sarah, Dan, Fiona, Richard, Lucy, Sarah & Shep headed to Whitney-on-Wye in Herefordshire (English side of border). Staying in at the Boat Inn (B&B, camping and pub) for 2 nights. We hired 6 boats from <br />
[http://www.celticcanoes.co.uk/ Celtic Canoes] who dropped us off Saturday morning in Glasbury (Welsh side of the border) and we paddled back down the Wye to the campsite. <br />
<br />
After a feed and a very disturbed night from other revellers and attempts at using Dan's head & tent as a trampoline, we paddled on down to Byford where the boat were collected and we were dropped back at the campsite. <br />
<br />
Weather was really hot and sunny on the second day, and over the whole weekend we got to practice canoeing in moving water: ferry gliding, breaking in and out, a few small rapids & weir drop, lining back up to do it again. We even got to pole for a stretch, some gunnel bobbing, and managing trim for padding into the wind.<br />
<br />
We ran out time to do the drop at Mornington Falls (just below the last take out), but there is already a plan to go back and do it again..... and stay somewhere else!<br />
