Sea kayaking lake brunner

On Wednesday the sea kayakers embarked to Mitchells. When we arrived we had to pack the kayaks, (which was a real hassle as we had do pack them in the rain). Halfway through packing, the rain stops but shortly after it starts back up again. When it was time to take the kayaks down to the water most of us picked up a double kayak and it was still heavy. After all the kayaks were at the lake edge my arms felt like jelly. When we chose our kayaks I got a double kayak. I was in the front so I did not get to use the pedals that control the rudder which wad a bummer. When we launched the kayaks it took some time to co-operate with the person in the back seat. After 10 minutes we finally were able to communicate with each other properly, when we arrived at bain bay we unpack the kayaks and set up our tents. The boy's tent was so dirty the floor was wet and muddy and our stuff was everywhere. but we worried about that later. The next day we packed our things and left. It was raining quite hard but that did not put anyone off or did it bother anyone which was awesome. ThIs trip was tiring, wet, and very very fun
   Thanks to the TTP for making this trip possible

  1. I like the last sentence "ThIs trip was tiring, wet, and very very fun". I see there was no "but". In other words, you are admitting that being tired and wet - given the right conditions - can be fun! I agree. Next time I'd like for you to reflect using some 'bigger picture" thinking. What have you taken away from this experience that will help you in other areas of your life? What part did you find the most challenging and why? www.mrsinton-white.blogspot.com
