Dreamin' of Sailing

Last day on the boat :(

27 May 2013 | The boat
Rain, rain and sun !
Grüß Gott or Coucou !
Today is a sad day, our last day on the boat. We woke up in a station named Batwater where there is a singing fish in the restroom and we arrived in St Helens where Dave and Mari keep their boat. Yesterday we went kayaking, Dave and Mari on one boat Freddi and Flo in the other ! It was pretty funny to watch us apparently ! Freddi had the brilliant idea (or not) to go on a hike to see a beaver dam, the problem was that the grass was taller than us and that it had rain right before we went, so we came back all wet, we could only stand and not see any beaver dam because of the grass !
To conclude this week we can say that we had a lot of fun ! And we would both like to thank Dave and Mari to take the time to take us on their boat and made us discover the columbia river !
P.S. we ate 8 boxes of Oreos or 280 Oreo cookies Haha !
Tschüss or Adieu.
