The annual beer floating event in Finland. You just do float down a river drinking beer and taking in the scenery.

Good idea for the Cape Trip  :cheers:

Looks a bit blocked up.
Do they have refill points along the way?
Wouldn't be good to run out before the end of the trip.

I can't believe the chick in the green boat in the middle is topless and none of the blokes are ogling her. Must all be pissed!

Yeah good question.
Some of those Tourist guides think it's fun teaching the Crocks to jump out of the water.
