Greg has arrived at the town of Medina, NY and has pitched his tent next to several other kayakers he met on the river. Last night his sleep was interrupted by a carnival next door - although it had closed in the early evening, several large trucks returned to finish cleaning up around 11.30pm! Here's hoping tonight's campsite will be more peaceful. Greg kayaked through Rochester, NY today, where the canal became a deep, concrete lined canyon, and tomorrow is aiming to reach Tonawanda, NY. Once he gets to Buffalo, he will make inquiries about crossing from the USA to Canada by kayak. In some cases, it may be easier to kayak along the Canadian side of the lake, but he wants to make sure he can get back OK!
Good to hear that Greg is making good progress despite the elements working against him. Thanks for the regular updates :)
ReplyDeleteCan you advise Greg's cell phone number?
ReplyDeleteThe text I got came from his usual (NZ)cell phone number.
