Apparently I’m becoming outdoorsy

Normally I'm not what you call an outdoorsy girl; I love the comforts of well... comfort. A couple of weeks ago my friends Carmel and Melissa asked if I wanted to go Kayaking and I was like, why not. Let me tell you I was scared to death that I was going to fall in the lake, either getting in or out the damn thing but happily I did not! I must say that I did some research on the subject before we went. God I love the internet where else can you pull up videos on how to get in and out of a kayak, how to paddle, and generally not make an ass of yourself?

So off we went to rent some kayaks from Agua Verde and head out on Lake Union. After my successful entrance into my kayak I was ready to go!! What fun, it was so beautiful out; it was the perfect day for my first time kayaking! We went over to Gas Works, then we floated about and chatted a little then headed back to eat some great food from Agua Verde! By the time we left we had plans to go again!

The next time out was just Carmel and I but we still had a great time. We went a little further this time; we went around Gas Works then across over to look at the house boat that was in Sleepless and Seattle. Let me tell you that crossing over to the other side of the lake was a little rough and we had to dodged many boats! This time I did bring my camera so I have proof that I'm becoming outdoorsy!!!


That's right I'm kayaking!!!


Watch out here comes Carmel!

Why didn't you mention that "after" kayaking you were too tired to leave your couch to walk a measly five blocks to come to my house to watch tv. hmpf....I cherish my energy too much to ever go "kayaking".
