Paddlefest Cincinnati, July 8, 2006

We went to paddlefest with long-time friend Joan.

Accidental Movie

She took our picture and made a movie, too!

Here's Joan!

Shortly after we got in the water, it was time to go.

We left from Four Season's Marina, and about 20 minutes later, St. Rose Church came into view.

Then we saw the apartments where Joan's mother lives.

She's on a balcony there somewhere.

Joan is on the phone talking to her mom and looking at her apartment.

Soon the downtown bridges and Mt. Adams came into view.

Along with a few of the local party riverboats.

Closeup of Mt. Adams.

This boat was one of several with live music, but the only one with a full-size harp.

Newport on the Levy


The Serpentine Wall comes into view.

And the end of the float.


This is the finish for the racers.
The non-racers pulled out on the far side of the riverboat.

Ready to do it again.
