Kayaking!

Mom, Dad and I just got home from a little kayaking trip - our first one of the summer! When mom and dad got married a few years ago, they got a tandem kayak as a wedding present. Dad is a real good kayaker - he does all of the paddling, BTW, and mom gets to ride around like Cleopatra, Queen of the Nile! Any way, last summer when I was a young pup, mom and dad introduced me to kayaking and I have always loved it! Today we went to a river that is near our house and took a short trip. You need a lot of gear when kayaking:
Me in my cool life jacket:

Finally, we're off:

We had beautiful weather and saw turtles, herons, a water snake, and lots of pretty damselflies.
Gotta zoom!

I used to go canoeing with my Mum all the time before agility! Loved it! And she got me a life jacket too!

Looks like you had a blast.
