New Kayakers

With a school closure our granddaughters had an extra day added to the Victoria Day long weekend. We kept them busy today by giving them their first kayaking experience. 


The weather was perfect. Not too hot or too cold and a nice light breeze.


There were a few interesting things to explore. We got up close to a family of turtles sunning themselves on a log.




And watched a mother duck walking her brood along the shore.


Both girls really enjoyed kayaking, but with only two kayaks it meant someone always had to sit out while the other had a turn. We need more kayaks!

It looks like they were having a great time. I love the photo of the turtles on the log.

They both said they enjoyed the kayaks, Gene. We took the girls out just so they could give kayaking a try. No sense in investing in additional kayaks if they would be too scared to use them, or found it too boring. No guarantee that we *will* be buying more kayaks, they are expensive and we'd have to figure out how to transport 4 kayaks! At the moment we only have 2 and they conveniently fit securely in the back of our pickup truck.
