We got there and had a practice, he trusted me with a single kayak (everyone else had doubles) which I thought was interesting. Just because I was an agent in the area suddenly I was a good kayaker, despite never having done it before?  Is ‘kayaker’ a word?

Anyway we kayaked around for a bit, it was good fun powering along trying to keep up with the instructor and the doubles, they were going at a leisurely pace and it wasn’t too hard to keep up, but I got a semi-workout from it as well. Although it could have all been in my head since I wasn’t feeling great. But we went out to an island and played around there for a while, before going back. The instructor was telling everyone how this girl he knows was kayaking up the east coast or something, and it was starting to sound like a good idea for me. Just got to get a spare $5k to spend on equipment (read: it will never happen).
