The painting was put on hold again today, while Devon and I kayaked the Motueka River. Its been a while since I've paddled on the Mot, and although it's tame compared to our more recent conquest, the Maruia River, its still never fails to please. Its a nice mix of scenic drifting and relaxed rapids, along with a handful of not-so-relaxed ones...

This afternoon we did the run from Mcleans Picnic area, down to the Penisula Bridge at Ngatimoti.


My kayak, ready to go at the put in.


Devon admires some of the rock formations typical of the Motueka River. In flood these kind of rocks kick up some great 'play-waves' up and down this river.

The Penisula Bridge connects Ngatimoti with the main highway. Its old, shakey, single-laned, and has a speed limit of 20kph. In its favour though, it is rather photogenic :)


Just beside the bridge is the charming Ngatimoti Bowling Club. "Cup of tea and a roll any one?"
