Canoeing day 1

May 10
My canoeing experience


Today was the first day of canoeing. The first thing we had to do was unload the canoes off the trailer, I thought this would be a lot harder than it actually was. Once we got onto the canoes we had to do a full circle witch I thought was pretty easy. When moving the canoe forward the person in the back had to do a j-stroke witch is a stroke witch keeps the canoe moving in a straight line. This stroke turned out to be a lot harder than I thought it was going to be. Overall I thought that this canoeing trip was fun. Mr Coulson said that we needed to bring a extra set of clothing in 2 garbage bags, a towel, something to hold your glasses on, and something to scoop water out of your canoe. 1101 is you have 1 minute of hyperventilation you have 10 minutes of moving around in the water then you have 1 hour before going unconscious this happens when you fall in the water.
