It's a beautiful day today, so off to the river we went. We decided to try what was described as a 6 hour trip ---- river is still moving fast, we made it in 3 hours.
We stopped at a park for lunch. The park is a great spot for lunch as well as a great camping spot. The interesting thing about this park is the only way to can get to it is by the river (unless of course you work for the conservation area and have permission from the farmer to drive across his field).
Today we saw several deer having a drink from the river, saw the usual kingfishers and we saw a bald eagle soar above us. We also saw these guys
---- cows. First we heard some interesting grunts, then some rattling of bushes and finally the cows appeared.
One of the old bridges along the river.
We made it to the town of Paisley today ---- I don't know if it is the half way point to Southampton and the end of the river but I think of it as half way.
