Double Kayak Day in our Double Kayak

P1070257

Today was a banner day: our kayak actually made FOUR trips into the Sea of Cortez, though we were only on board for two of them.

We started the day heading offshore in the kayak, traveling  to the far south end of Los Barriles, about 2 miles each way.  This afternoon our next-door neighbors, Don, Patty and their son Pete took 2 short trips out in the kayak to test the waters.

Tonight at 6:30, Bob, Cathryn, Doug and Jill set off together in our respective kayaks to experience a first-ever “kayaking by moonlight” tour.

F0r almost 2 hours, we paddled  offshore listening to fish jumping, being bumped by underwater “somethings”, taking photos of the almost-full moon and silhouettes of each other in the moonbeams, and yes, we admit, even sipping a little bit of wine.

And talking about the possibility of another trip together next winter. What a memorable evening!
