Description:
Entered at Luhr Beach and the tide was running inland. Perfect weather, lots of Herons, fish jumping, a pleasant paddle. Paddled to Martin Way and then headed back. Tide still coming in and the paddle out was a bit of work. Took a side stream and saw hundreds of small crabs. Back in the main water way a seal joined the trip and added levity. Took a couple of hours, a pleasant break.
