Ride with the wind - 6.6km!

So much of our paddling is directed by the wind. Today it is blowing a fresh Easterley, so Kerri and I decided to head west from Matilda Bay and cruise down to Bishop Street for a picnic.
The Easterley was quite fresh when we set out, and eased to calm conditions as we paddled along. On the way back we paddled past yacht races that looked like suspended animation - the yachts sitting becalmed waiting for the sea breeze.

Bishop Street is a beautiful beach, with Point Resolution nature reserve at on headland and Bishop Street Reserve at the other. It is marred by housing development in the middle.
