Whitewater Rafting in Austria

While we were down in southern Germany we decided to go whitewater rafting in Austria! We had a blast! It was just a short drive from where we were staying and it was a beautiful drive. Once we arrived they made us fill out some paperwork that stated we were 'sane' and had no medical issues and then we put on our wet gear...

We looked ridiculous. (This picture was taken after we got back)


We then jumped on a bus and headed 20 minutes up the road to the entrance of the river. Our tour guide; Mike(who's awesome) taught us some simple instructions about rowing and safety and we were off paddling down the river. The water was a gorgeous blue and the scenery was green. It was beautiful.

Mike let us jump out a few times when the river was 'calm.' It was freezing cold! It was a really hot that day and with the wet weather gear it wasn't so bad. Needless to say, we had way too much fun!

Here are some pictures of our trip
