Here we are all suited up. The place provides wet suits, jackets and life jackets. Robbie chose to wear only the life jacket, too cold for the rest of us to do that. They started out with a quick lesson on how to kayak and then sent us off with our kayaks. It is fun to see the wharf area from a different view than what one is used to.
We saw lots of seals and otters. Those seals can be real noisy. Briana and Robbie called them the dogs of the sea because they bark like dogs and they called the otters the cats of the sea because they spend lots of time grooming.
This is the kayak I used. It is a single kayak. They also had double and triple kayaks. I liked being able to go by myself and paddle wherever I felt like it. We had a group of 59 of us from church, so there were always people on the water to say hi too. Curtis took off right away so I hardly saw him. I think next time I will make it my goal to stay with him, although I like to paddle and look around, but he likes to go for speed. Briana and Robbie had a double kayak. I saw them once while I was out. They had a seal follow them that they named Skippy.
The ride home after a long fun day.
