Canoeing the Delaware!

On Friday both crews took an 8 mile journey down the Delaware River! The day started off meeting at Hoffman Park fifteen minutes earlier! And everyone managed to make good timing! As soon as we got everything together, we headed to the arboretum to meet with the canoe leaders and get our canoes, life jackets, and paddles. We all piled into the vans and left for Easton to start our journey! We arrived at the river and were taught different canoe strokes and signals.
Soon after, we were off! The weather was incredibly hot, so we stopped to swim as many times as possible which was very refreshing. Along the way, Bryan found '90s looking sandals that were two different sizes on the shore, I have a feeling he'll be rocking those for awhile now. As we paddled up to the end point, we were all thankful to be getting in vans with air conditioning and out of the sun. It felt good to have accomplished 8 miles of canoeing in a timely fashion, good work, guys!

One last thing, RIP Liz and Casey's sunglasses. Both pairs of sunglasses were loved by everyone and will be missed, no matter how inexpensive they were.

'Til next time,
Brittany
