Canoe

One of the people I went hiking with last week had a good tip for a secluded lake in the Laurentians that had no cottages on it, no boats and hardly any people. We found it, after some driving around, and it is indeed very nice.
While swimming I see a hidden canoe on the shore. I borrow it and make a short canoo trip with Poupoune (on this picture still swimming with a stick). Unfortunately there is no real paddle, but only a makeshift contraption made of a stick and a plank, held together with some fishing line. It’s very heavy, and doesn’t give much forward motion, so more than a short trip is out of the question. Poupoune doesn’t mind, she doesn’t like long boat trips anyway.
