Heart Coracle

Visible here there should be a picture of me sitting happily in the walnut shell. Just wanted to warn people that just before I jumped into the little ship I was wearing black jeans and a t-shirt. So be prepared for a change of sorts. Still the craft is cool. With a single oar, one must stir the water in front in the shape of a figure 8. This way you draw yourself along.  Its not fast. Its not stable. But it is pure joy. Perhaps this means that any emergency we meet on this cruise will not be escaped from in a hurry. There is a knack.
