25 March 2013: What a sunset, what a afternoon, I was going to use WOW again but I have already used it soooooo many times previously that I am in fear of wearing it out. So tonight sunset can only be described as MEGA WOW!
Lake Burley Griffin and the Canberra skies never cease to amaze me. Yet again I have witnessed another jaw dropping display. It’s natures sky fire!
I had been watching the skies form all afternoon.
24 March 2013: If you were anywhere else in the world you would be raving out it for months! This morning’s setting was so soft and gentle but yet so powerful. Lake Burley Griffin never ceases to amaze me, it just keeps bowling me over and leaves me wanting more. It’s amazing how you can paddle the same place every day and be treated to a totally new experience each time.
Greeting a misty dawn
23 March 2013: Tony Cane-Honeysett saying “It’s simply brilliant because it’s brilliantly simple” summed up this mornings paddle on Lake Burely Griffin.
21 March 2013: What a brilliant morning!
The conditions were so good that I decided to take my four year old ‘Captain Nemo’ out for a float on the lake in my double sea kayak ‘The Big Bopper’. The conditions we perfect, excellent, wonderful and any other words that you can use to describe what it was like being out there. I hope you were lucky enough to be out and about this morning to experience it.
20 March 2013: This morning’s serene start to the day is a strong indication that wonderful Wednesday is about to unfold. It was a cool start but it wasn’t long before I was being warmed up by the morning rays. Serene, peaceful and calm are only a few words to describe what it was like on the water this morning.
6.25am: Pre dawn cruise
11 March 2013. Wow wow and wow…did I say wow enough. Lake Burley Griffin has started its 100th birthday celebrations with a mind blowing perfomance. Copper sunrises, balloon silhouettes were dotting the skies, then there was the show stopping showman in the Capital Chemist balloon. He even had time to chat as he changed over of his LPG gas cyclinder as the other ran out of juice while he was basket dragging across the basin towards Black Mountain Tower. He was that calm it felt like we were sitting on his back deck, kicking back and cruising for the afternoon. Unreal, fantastic, brilliant and as many other wow words you can use may come close to the experience I had this morning.
Mind Blowing Sunrise
10 March 2013: There wasn’t any need for speed at all again this morning, the most important thing you have to make sure of is that you sponge in as much as you can; especially when there’s a light show like this. I had the best Sunday morning cruise on LBG this morning with Matt and Tim. What more can you ask for, great conditions, brilliant colours and excellent company……thanks guy’s had a great morning.
Down in the East Basin, loving the pre-dawn tones.
9 March 2013: LBG does it again! Back to back mornings and Lake Burley Griffin has treated us to a spectacular display with another jaw dropping sunrise followed by a balloon spectacular which filled the skies and had everyone going Ooooo…. Ahhhh and Oh YEAH! Well that’s what I was saying anyway. I hope that you scroll down and enjoy a few selected pics from this morning’s float.
8 March 2013: Just another standard morning on LBG again…..Mirror reflections, mist on the water, stunning sunrise, brilliant backdrops, angelic swans…and GIANT HOT AIR BALLOONS BASKET DRAGGING ON THE WATER!
The start of a cracker morning on LBG
7 March 2013: Crystal clear skies and light winds made for a very relaxing paddle on LBG this morning. I was out there for an early start so I had plenty of time to take in the pre-dawn glow from the East Basin, cruise past the Carillon into the Main Basin to see the soft tones and then I sat back and took in another stunning light show.
Another beautiful start to the day.
