Sailing

We were invited sailing on Monday with Fred & Ju! I had never been sailing before so decided to investigate it.  It was a lovely day - had thought there wasn't much sun about but turns out there was and got toasted...oops.

Sailor boy
 Perched on the front
 Winching the keel (hmm not sure of the terminology here..)
 Up goes the sail

 The city
 Matt at the helm, was ok until it goes 'right' over!  It's difficult concept to get in your head that leaning over is ok.  Normal boats are flat!
I really enjoyed it! I do have to admit that the stop to eat lunch did cause me to go a little green and where glad to be on firm ground again - but I'd go again.  Bring on the next long weekend!
