Sailing Down the River 40 members of the U3A Marina Baixa travelled from Albir to
Cieza in Murcia. After donning life jackets and helmets we clambered into four rafts with 10 on each, everyone had to row and really work hard with instructions from a professional ‘skipper’ at the back.
This was the fourth year and for a change we rowed from Cieza to Blanco. It is not exactly white water rafting but still great fun. There is plenty of splashing, colliding with the reeds on the side, areas where you can get out and swim and some 'bumpy' areas of river. The highlight is the 2 weirs - 1 medium which we all did and 1 large which some of us didn’t do because it was at our own risk. Those who ‘dropped over’ said it was thrilling. It actually looked almost slow motion and not scary at all. Thanks must once again go to Rob for organising this popular event. Roll on next year!
