Good morning,
enjoyed myself thoroughly last weekend on a short trip with a good outdoor buddy of mine and my dog as company. If you don't mind the German captions of the pictures, have a quick look and let me hear what you think. Enjoy: http://picasaweb.google.com/kdr911/P...eat=directlink
All the best, Chris
Looks like a fine, fine trip. Nothing like burning some meat on a fire in the middle of the woods.
I'm interested in that wood stove you've got there. Is that home made? Is it a requirement to use that instead of an open fire due to regulations?
I have heard your confession I know who you blame
If you had it all back you'd just lose it again
Can't bank on redemption if you ain't saved
Don't bring me your tales of temptation and loss
Don't bring me the pieces of your shattered cross

Thanks for sharing, good looking dog. That is an interesting stove you have.
Ambulo tua ambulo.
Looks like you had a great trip. I often take my dog with me when I canoe, she even has her own life jacket. I don't let her swim though, too many alligators! I hope to be going on a canoe trip with a teacher friend of mine after school gets out for the summer. I can't wait.

...and there came to be a day, all too soon, that I became aware that I could travel no more on my long journey. Though I did not arrive where I had planned, I believe that here is exactly where I am supposed to be...
Nice trip report - wish I remembered more German though. Looks like you had a good time and that picture of the corn and meat is making me hungry.
Great pictures and I really like that canoe. Looks like you had a great trip.

Looks like a nice trip to me
What canoe do you have, it looks a bit like an Ally? I've been thinking of getting myself a folding canoe as I live in the city so have no need for a car and my flat doesn't have space
great looking trip ... love to hear more about the stove you used. Fine looking beast you have ... seems to prefer swimming over the canoe!

Very nice Chris
Love the Pakboat / Ally ?
boys, I got to hand it to you: You know your stuff!
1) @ Col_M and Shewie: yep, that's an Ally 16ft Explorer alright. A very nifty Norwegian folding canoe design.
2) @ fulminated: There might be a rule for using certain stoves and others not, but I really wouldn't know about that. While he have probably more rules than any other nation in the world, sticking to them makes life boring and takes the challenge out of things!
3) @ those of you interested in the stove, here's a little more of it in action:

It's a very cool design indeed that I had seen on a trip a couple of years ago. I asked the guy to make me one, here's his page (in German though):
