bullerfest is a kayaking and rafting comp 5 min out of Murchison. all the 2nd years in my cause and the tutors were raving about it.so i thought y not.we got there Friday night,was too late for the videos and drinks at the rec center but enough time to set up camp and get ready for a cool weekend.
Saturday morning up at 8 had leftover bread buns left from last night and some yogurt for breakfast.then went down to the local rafting center and helped pump up and load the rafts. we then made our way to the river and went down to the main rapid to check out the cause.wonded back up to the road and organised a rafting team with some of the others from TPP,we ended up with 3 teams who all made it to the semi finals. i had never rafted before so was little nervious not knowing what to do.we ended up having 3 races, got 3rd in 2 and first in the other. i had such a wicked time. me and 2 others got to take the last 2 rafts down the rapid so we could get them back onto the trailer,we paddled on one and towed the other it was prity funny.
that night there was a big party at the camp sight that the organisers had going.we had a few drinks and went to that,i was rather tyred so didn't stay too long
Sunday they had a cardboard and duck tap raft race down the river next to the camp sight two of my classmates and two tutors entered it was hilarious. that day at 3 they had prize giving none of our group placed but we did get some little spot prizes.they gave away heaps of spot prizes including 2 paddles and had a massive game of paper scissors rock to give away a kayak,it was wicked.
All in all great weekend out on the water
