Foxes' sailing at Alton Water

As part of Olympic's week we had a taste of learning an Olympic' skill.....sailing. We were excited but nervous before starting. The first big challenge was getting into our wetsuits! In twos we took out our Toppers ( boats) onto the reservoir,and despite the very windy day, had lots of fun learning to sail. Several of us capsized, which was a bit of a shock as it was cold in  the water. Finally we came back to shore, and after changing really enjoyed our picnic lunch. Funny how hungry we were. What an amazing experience!
