I just thought today I'd rant a little about kayaking.I've only done it once in my life actually, but it was really REALLY fun. We were on vacation, at a Christian retreat kind-of-thingy (it's for Christians to come and stay for a weekend and get energized and refueled, it's really good!) anyways, we were down at their marina thing. They built their retreat really close to a bay, so they can do stuff on the bay. It's neat :) Anyways, so they had all kinds of little boats and stuff that the people can take out. I decided to take the kayak. The lady got me all geared up, and then told me to get in. I did, and was instructed what to do, and did it! It was so neat!
At first I had a lot of trouble with the oar-thingy. I would do it the wrong way and stuff. But it was really fun. I almost got stopped when I went too near the shore. I was like really scared. What if some for yuck animal came out? But thankfully none did and I got out safely.
All I can say is, kayaking is an amazing thing. You really should try it if you never have. I was so happy when I tried, it. All my friends were like, "Wow! Was it fun?" (and I'm thinking 'Duh.') lol.
And then I got to thinking. I should really try to doing other stuff. You know, like canoeing and whatnot. Maybe I should. :) Did you ever go kayaking? Did you like it? Oh, and did you ever canoe? lol
ive done kayaking before at a girl scout camp and in a family outing! It was so much fun! I ran into the edge of the shore, but overall I won a race and played splash tag!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a TON of fun!!!
DeleteOh my word! Kayaking is soooo much fun! I went with my sister before she went to college so it always brings back so many memories! We were just sitting in the lake, just me and my sister, talking and giggling like we were little girls. It is so much fun to do it with another person! I've done it several times and have gotten pretty good at it...but trust me, the first time I did it, I was like so scared, and I went the wrong way, and well, you can probably figure out the rest:) But I've tried kayaking before. Its fun, but its quite a bit harder to steer and it tips over a lot easier, but please, don't let me keep you from trying it, because it IS fun! I just like kayaking better. You should also try paddle-boarding, where there is this board (it sorta looks like a surfboard) and you stand up on it and paddle! It is way too much fun, and you don't tip very easily! Also paddle BOATING that is a lot of fun too! I'm sorry, I just like boating soooooooooooooooooooooo much! I love going on fishing boats, motor boats, i love water skiing, water tubing, water parks of any type...I just love water! Oh wow! This comment is WAY too long! Sorry!:/
ReplyDeleteI love this post by the way!

p.s. once again, sorry for such a long comment, it isn't even really a comment it is more like a discussion! lol:D
Wow.
DeleteThat's so cool!!! Yeah, I've paddle-boated before, it's pretty fun. I like water too!
haha lol
I've kayaked, canoed, paddle boated, and a few more things...but then it helps when you have a lake in your backyard doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteGlad you had so much fun :D

Wow! Serious? That is so cool!
DeleteThanks! :)
I went kayaking once two years ago on a missions trip where the house we stayed at had a lake as the backyard. :p I loved it, except for that one moment when I almost capsized and freaked out thinking I was gonna die. XD haha
ReplyDeleteCool ;)
Deletehaha (oops, I shouldn't laugh, should I?) lol
haha it's ok. I was over a deeper part of the lake when it happened, but I was wearing a life vest though, so I don't think I would've died. I'm just really afraid of drowning. :p
DeleteI gave you the Liebster award on my blog! :D You should post your answers! :D
