  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 14pt;">to Keji for a little paddling and a bit of fishing.<br/></span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 14pt;">As we paddled in a little cove just of the river, I saw<br/></span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 14pt;">a movement in the water and the water sort of hump up.<br/></span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 14pt;">We were close to shore maybe 45 cms of water - when I looked<br/></span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 14pt;">closely I could see an Otter lying on the bottom. The canoe passed<br/></span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 14pt;">just in front of it and I could see the Otter looking up at me. I let the<br/></span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 14pt;">canoe slide and the Otter didn&#39;t move while I could see it. I&#39;ve seen<br/></span>

  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 14pt;">habitat. Not a good chance for a picture.<br/></span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 14pt;">The Mayflies were out - 2 or 3 different kinds. Small ones - some folks call the <br/></span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 14pt;">Sallies, a few medium and a number of larger ones. The fish were having<br/></span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 14pt;">a good meal as were the Red Winged Blackbirds. They were at their<br/></span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 14pt;">best flying back and forth konking all the time. A Grouse drumming in<br/></span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 14pt;">the background made it a perfect canoe trip.<br/></span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 14pt;">The staff are very friendly also - A few minutes talking will get <br/></span>
  </div> 
  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 14pt;">lots of interesting info. One member even gave me a nice hat!<br/></span>

  <div>
   <span style="font-size: 14pt;">The only sad part of the day was having to leave!<br/></span>
