I <3 The Northwest
Kayaking was amazing. The lake was breathtakingly beautiful. It was surrounded by forested hills and the sky was enormous above us, with bits of blue sky and the occasional sunbreak. Towards the end it got cloudy and overcast, but it still didn't spoil the beauty of the whole adventure. It was therapeutic to be on the water. I was in a double kayak with dragonboater Emily from Portland, and we couldn't help but let our d-boat instincts kick in. It felt so great to be paddling again. We talked, half-serious, about starting up a team here. We talked about home and the future and travelling and so many other things. We went with two other girls, Catherine and Kim. Kim brought a camera and so when I get the pictures from her I'll post them or something.
Oh it was so much fun.
