Whitewater Rafting

On Saturday my Church had a ward trip - rafting - at Kimball which is just south of Cardston so about an hour south of Lethbridge. I'd never been before so was very excited! There were about 6 rafts in total, with 6-10 of us in each raft and some people were kayaking as well. You can see me at the beginning of the trip looking nice and dry - that didn't last very long at all. The river we went down was quite tame so we didn't have any problems other than getting stuck on a huge rock at the beginning and all having to go to the front of the raft and jump up & down to get off it! We also jumped out and swam in some of the places along the river and were able to body surf one of the rapids which was fun. It was really hot that day so it was good to keep cool in the water. We were on the river for about 2 hours and the time went by really fast as we were having such a good time. At the end we also had a barbecue with hotdogs while we all dried out in the sunshine.
