Task 1

We've called an open distance task following the river to the north. Conditions look just like yesterday, soft and light, but we should be able to get well out of the city into the green countryside. Manuel and Elle on the film crew will be following us north. I hope we get to see the documentary they're working on before we head home. Manuel is a pro surfer and filmmaker from Ecuador and his beautiful fiancé Elle is a Brit living and working here as a photographer.
