ON THE WATER - WOY WOY - 12 JUNE 2019

A kayak at Woy Woy with Kara and Mr Archibald.

It took us awhile to fit the two kayaks in the van but where there's a will there's a way.

The kayak was fun.

Mr Archibald slipped into the water briefly then spent most of the time hiding under Kara's ponytail.

I took the sit-on kayak. It was so heavy and a little complicated to get the fin and foot pedals right. It went well but a little more sluggish than the other kayak.

Highlights of the kayak included:

starfish under the water

heaps of birds

water reflections

great company

wake waves from the local ferry

shallow fast moving water between the two islands


After the kayak we had coffee on the waterfront at Ettalong.

highlights:

bacon and egg burger

nice view

my seat collapsed - haha

CENTRAL COAST KAYAK - COPACABANA LAGOON - 5 AUGUST 2015

Another sunny and cold morning kayak. This time at Copacabana Lagoon for 4.05km.

Should I wear my fingerless bike gloves? Nah. Wrong decision! Once again, I had to stop now and again to warm up my hands.

 

 

The sun was shining on the southern part of the lagoon but a wind was blowing across the southern side to compensate.

 

I had fun with the go pro trying different angles for shots. I put my small canon on a selfie stick to try some underwater scenes. I thought I was clever as my hands wouldn't touch the cold water. Alas some water got into the camera and it stopped working.

 

No worries as it started working again when the water dried out. Luckily, the lagoons are fresh water if it was salt the camera would be in the bin.

 

It was fun weaving in and out of the trees and through the reeds.



 

 

There were herons slowly treading through the shallows under the trees looking for food.
