I think we’ve made a few more converts to the joys of paddling. Joe and Mari visited over Memorial weekend and they requested we paddle Elkhorn again. As always, Elkhorn delivered on beauty and wildlife. Nice clear day, water rabbits, birds, seals, sea lions, jellies… So here are yet more pictures from another successful outing to the slough.
They always seem to be in synch!
This time we asked Mike to join us. He was assigned to a different kind of kayak than usual, the one they assign to tall paddlers. Sadly it had no rudder, but he did just fine.
Is it the joy of their teamwork or the sight of the raft of water rabbits?
This jelly was our final wildlife sighting while the other returned to Kayak Connection, taking advantage of our waterproof camera.
We had a hearty lunch at Central Texan BBQ in Castroville. Mmm-mmm. We even took a doggie bag and made a very nice hash with the meat and onion later. Will definitely do that again; never knew what to do with that slice of raw onion they put on the plate, plus this way we’ll have incentive not to overeat at the bbq.
Mike asked a lot of questions about gear. He might even be crazy enough to get his own boat.
