Paddling the Murg :)

Yo you people out there ;)
Yesterday (6.04.06) the easter-holidays started and I went directly after school to the Murg. It is a nice class 3-4 river in the Black Forest (88km from my home). It was my first time on the Murg, on a few other days it worked in the past I couldn't try it because I had to do a lot for school or it was personally for myself to cold (temperatures below 0 degrees).
I paddled it with Flotze, one member of the incredible PPC-Crew^^ and Christoph. The waterlevel was between 20 and 25 kb/sec, I guess. Because we drove with my car I was ordered to HitchHike. Thx for the friendly locals there, it took me only 5 minutes at the bus-station to get a Hike (yeah, i'm so beautiful^^ and augsburg rulez, or raoul ;))!
On the river we had no complications, everything passed without any accidents, yeahh.
All in all it was a very nice day, the sun shines all the time...only the water on your fingers was very cold. On our way back home we made a turn in the McDrive and ate a few nice Burgers or softIce ot whatever^^ haha.
That's all

Here are some pictures of course (pictures of the heaviest rapids couldn't be shot because I was busy with paddling ;)
