Namibia

Claire and I, permanent paddle partners

For Easter break the majority of the group plus a few additions from Arcadia and Northwestern headed to the Orange River in Namibia for a rafting trip. We spent three (intense!) days paddling down rapids as well as calm water and sleeping under the stars with no tents or covering. Everything we ate and used during the trip was tied down to our boats, and we built fires at every overnight site to cook dinner (the food was surprisingly delicious). On the final day, we were also able to climb out after one of the rapids and hike back up to swim down the rapids.
