Post-Expedition Musings III: Food. Paddle to eat, eat to paddle. For the third in my series of post-mortems on my 2-week kayak camping trip on the West Coast of Vancouver Island, I want to tackle the topic of food. It’s also the longest of all of these articles. Coincidence? Food fatigue = fueling failure. Poor planning produces peckish paddlers. And other alliterative aphorisms. Post-Expedition Musings II: Packing. This is a packing test for my 2-week Vancouver Island trip. Post-Expedition Musings I: Th...

rocky spray: March 2014
http://rockyspray.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Water, rock and movement. Monday, 24 March 2014. Fishing in the blue cave. I lead this trip the last day of RnR. I was leading Selim and Vincent. We went into many crevasses, over some rocks and some caves. One of the caves was reckoning moment for Selim. My wife thinks I exaggerated a bit with the music. What do you think? Tuesday, 18 March 2014. Tollgates Islands and Rock and Roll. Wade about to run dry. Lots of fun around. Mr Honey in his boat. Paddling inside the islands. And around the islands.

PaddleBC: 6/28/09 - 7/5/09
http://paddlebc.blogspot.com/2009_06_28_archive.html
Thursday, July 2, 2009. I will try to post as much as I can during the trip but I am not sure how often I will get internet access (or how much my mobile broadband will cost me in Canada). I will also be sending in positions from my SPOT (satelite tracker) so everyone will at least know where I am. Photos and video might have to wait until my return. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Saturday, August 29, 2009. If I had my laptop I could upload pictures and edit and post some video.

rocky spray: Tollgates Islands and Rock and Roll
http://rockyspray.blogspot.com/2014/03/tollgates-islands-and-rock-and-roll.html
Water, rock and movement. Tuesday, 18 March 2014. Tollgates Islands and Rock and Roll. There is these beautiful islands. You are not supposed to land there. There is no fishermen hut or any sign of human contamination. They are close to shore, less than 5 km, and very exposed to the swell. There are plenty of rock formations around and inside the islands that make the place a treasure for paddlers and paradise for those like me that like to play among rocks. Wade about to run dry. Lots of fun around.

Water, rock and movement. Saturday, 22 February 2014. My surroundings are shaking. I hear a voice commanding me to wake up. I open my eyes and darkness surrounds me. I manage to take a look at the watch, it shows 4AM and I realise I am in a tent. Am I back in the army? While we sleep in the tent the kayaks waited under the moon. The light before the light. Ready to paddle in the dark. The long day with help of moderate winds. Today is the last day of the expedition. Expedition sounds too grandiose? It is...

Water, rock and movement. Thursday, 29 May 2014. NSWSC Sea Leaders weekend. It happened at Seal Rocks, around 4 hours driving from home. I took a ride with Matt and on Friday after midday, before the proper event started, we were on the water for a short paddle. We met Josh on the water who also had arrived earlier and we all stayed paddling until the sun was beginning to set. On Friday night most of the club leaders were there and on Sunday morning arrived a couple more. Monday, 19 May 2014. Another glo...

rocky spray: December 2013
http://rockyspray.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Water, rock and movement. Friday, 27 December 2013. The blog has been quiet for a while, however I have been kayaking, I have had a few adventures and I have written a couple of stories. The problem is that I wanted to share them with Salt magazine, the magazine of NSWSKC. The magazine went out last week and I received it as Christmas present (good timing editor! Within the magazine there were two 'articles' I submited. One of them was about an exciting moment. 65279;. I should have known better when I...
