Yesterday we went on an excursion to Asturias to do the 'Descenso del Sella' - often called an Asturian rite of passage, which is a famous kayaking route down the river Sella. A race takes place in August of every year. 

The normal route is 15km long, we managed to cover about 8 which was a great effort from everybody. 

 

We were in 2 person kayaks so everyone chose a partner, and the teachers and monitors each took one of the younger kids as their partner.

We had stops along the way to let everyone catch up, catch their breath and to have lunch. 

 

It was such a fun day, some of the kids had never been in kayaks so it was great for them to try it out on such a renowned route.
