Playing in the tidal rapid at Bhalasaigh
We'd earlier paddled up into Tob Bhalasaigh with the end of the rising tide, then up towards its northern end to await the ebb gaining a bit of speed. On our return to Bhalasaigh, our timing proved excellent as there was a lot of water emptying out of the loch at some speed under the bridge. "High crossing" is a game usually played by white water kayakers, and not in the normal "remit" of sea kayakers, as the sea doesn't often cooperate in this way ! However we spent a good hour playing in this tidal rapid as the level changed until tempus fugit and we had to be elsewhere...
