Loch Sheildaig - kayaking
An Austrian sea kayaking? What ever next!
Too much climbing and running had depleted my Brownie Point cache to such an extent that a sea kayaking trip with Emily was the order of the day. We put in at Sheildaig and paddled round Loch Sheildaig on, mostly, calm waters surrounded by sea cliffs and snow-capped mountains. Apart from nearly capsizing after hitting some fish farming junk it was a great trip. Only two seals were spotted, but a skirmish between some sea gulls and some sort of eagle made up for the poor seal quota.
My shoulders and core muscles really felt it and I will have to get out more if I want to paddle around Raasay in the Summer!
