Watersports: Kayaking

NOTHING is more fun than being on the water on a hot Summer day.


Jasmin and friend Cullen (who lives at Lake Almanor - lucky guy!) enjoying the kayaks.


My kayaking instructor.....

Yours truly, actually learning to ride the smooth water in an ocean kayak..........such fun.


No, definitely not a dream. I really loved going out on the kayak, paddling along at water level, seeing everything from a new perspective..........guess after the African safari adventure nothing much scares me anymore.  Of course there were no hippos or crocs to worry about....a huge difference!

  5. Mary, you really know how to have fun. I am a bit afraid of tipping over in a kayak so I have yet to try it. I agree with you...after Africa, what is there to be afraid of! ;-D

  8. This brings back some great memories! I grew up in Long Beach and we used to kayak in the Marina District of Belmont Shore. They have a section called Naples and there are little canals between all of the pricey real estate.

    Thanks for sharing!
