Makes ya think. No wonder we ha...Great links, John!<br />Makes ya think. No wonder we haven't gone to Skookumchuck yet... our paddle group needs one of those kick-ass names like The Hurricane Riders or Tsunami Rangers.<br />The thought of losing physical abilities is never fun. Must get out the big boat this weekend, keep up the strengthening skills...<br />The daredevil who paddled around the north end of the island in a traditional kayak without camping gear *really* went commando. Man, I am never again going to feel like I'm travelling light when I pop out into the bay in my shortie wetsuit and a full set of safety gear in my little rec kayak.<br />About the whale/kayaker photo, just saying once again that though it's awe-inspiring to get close up and personal with whales, we gotta remember that it's very hard to do so without getting in their way. Sailboaters call kayaks "speedbumps" for a reason. Keeping 100 metres minimum away from a whale is not only a good idea, it's the law. Think about protecting the whale, eh? The only time I've been kayaking close to a whale, I was sitting on top of a wet rock in my AdvancedElements inflatable. Close but out of its way.<br />and by the way, that blinky shark is creepy.Paula Johansonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15546604458659721403noreply@blogger.com
