I am just back from 3 days of kayaking, sore, very stiff, aching all over, and enormously proud of having done the trip. My friend Bonnie did a similar trip in June, including the infamous 'wet exit' - having now done it, I think she understated her achievement greatly!
Later I will describe the trip in The Bee Diaries; for now, for the purpose of this venue, let me say that I set out to do a trip that I knew would be challenging given my level of fitness, and I did it! I am sunburned as hell, have a huge black and blue bruise on one leg and doubtless others I haven't found yet, but I paddled a kayak for many kilometres, successfully did a wet exit AND a tee rescue, survived a night camping (ok, that is not so formidable an accomplishment, I admit), and here I am, freshly showered and clutching a cold pale ale, going YAHOO!
