Freshwater Beach, Dorset. Summer 2015
Dec 2013: Both Squatt and Cola-Bottle have outgrown their kayaks so they have now been sold. As they were Christmas presents, Squatt and Cola-bottle received all the money from the sale of their kayaks. As we do not go kayaking that often they have decided not to buy another kayak each yet.
For Christmas 2009 Santa gave Squatt a kayak, it was a bit big for him but it was the smallest Santa could get. Baldy, having been a keen kayaker many, many years ago when he was almost young got one too, and we couldn't leave out 'Cola Bottle' and Mum.
A couple of months after, Squatt's uncle and cousins got kayaks too. Now 'Random Letters' is a keen kayaker maybe more-so than Snott.
Since then both ColaBottle and Squatt have passed their young paddlers award and have gained their 1 star kayaking award.
During a family camping trip to North Wales in 2010 Squatt kayaked around half of the edge of Lake Bala and in 2011 kayaked half the length of Ullswater and back.

Family Holiday at our usual campsite in the Lake District 3rd August 2014
A wild camping overnighter was taken by Baldy and Squatt whilst we were there and this trip has been written about on the Adventures in 2014 page. Here are the Kayaking photos from the entire holiday.

This pic is of us all when we kayaked to Norfolk Island on Ullswater. It has been photoshopped to look old.
