On the Monday Neil and I hired kayaks from Pampas Marina near Västra Skogen on Lake Mälaren. I said that we could try and kayak down to meet my Mum and Dad in the city.
I envisioned this to be a relaxing little paddle along the edge of the lake on a nice summers day. It turned out to be a trial of Herculean proportions!
It was about 30 degrees and it took us about 4 hours of paddling to get down and back. The total course was about 13Km as the fish swims, but with my erratic paddling style I think I must have done about 30…
