Kayaking

Early this morning we took to the water.

We followed our guide through the mangroves.

We saw lots of birds along the way.

But only a few would pose for me.
Mostly, they were busy hunting for breakfast.


At times it was a challenge to get pictures
because the boat was always moving.
Going with the flow, so to speak. 

To add some excitement.....
the boys invented a game on the open water.
For lack of a better name let's just call it
"Kayak Wars".

You start with two boats coming head-on using turbo paddle speed.
As far as I could tell, both the losers and the winners get wet.

Oh I just love having my family all together.
Even if I do get wet.

Kayak Trip on the River

 Our 4-H Kayak trip was today.
The river was great.
The weather was just right.
And the scenery was beautiful.


Our guide showed us to a great fossiling place.
Ranae found a sting ray jaw.


We were looking for tiger shark teeth.
Sarah loved getting cooled off in the river.


And Kevin did find a tiger shark tooth.

And some of us didn't look for fossils.
(Isn't Alex so smart to catch a nap?)
(Tonight is prom and he's going to need all the sleep he can get.)
