Kayaking Raquel Kirk
Every time I go kayaking, I have an awesome time. It never ceases to amaze me, how much peace and serenity eludes me. From the moment I step into the deep blue water and sit inside my kayak I envision my ride around the lake to my favorite spot on the swimming rock and then just gliding around till sunset. It’s a wonderful adventure that eagerly awaits me. My kayak fits me perfectly, It’s absolutely beautiful. It has the most vibrant orange with bright yellows and reds surrounding the entire kayak. It definitely stands out just like a ball of flaming sun fire. Right behind the seat, is a built in compartment where I can store some food and drinks for the day. Towards the front is a retractable foot rest, where I can position my feet comfortably to my liking. Then I sit inside and gently run my fingers along the side of its smooth and …show more content…
sleek surface. I grab the paddle and now I’m ready to go.
I slowly push off the dock, skimming the water.
I shift my eyes out to the rest of the lake. The view is breathtaking. The water is as clear as glass and looks like thousands of diamonds being thrown across a blue blanket, shimmering with sheer beauty. It’s as if I’m now in another world. With each stroke of my paddle, I gain more speed till I’m out in the middle of my lake. I come to a stop. I close my eyes and tilt my head upward toward the hot sun, as it beats down upon my skin. Sweats is dripping down my forehead. A warm breeze brushes up against my face. I look over just as a flock of birds were soaring by. Truly amazing. I start paddling again, heading swiftly towards the my favorite place, the swimming
rock.
Before I knew it I had arrived. I get out and pull my kayak onto the rock, so it doesn’t drift away. I just love it here. Underneath my feet, it’s a little slippery and has a rough and bumpy surface. I climbed to its highest point of 15ft. There’s no hesitation, I jump right into the water. The water is invigorating, cool, crisp and refreshing. I float up to the surface feeling weightless. I swim around for a bit, then climb onto the rock to bask in the sun before I head back.
Finally, it’s almost day’s end. Sunset lurks. The sun is getting ready to be tucked in the earth for the night. What a phenomenal view! The only sound left is the cicada’s in the distance. The clouds look scattered, with lovely pink, purple and blue pastels painted across the sky. The lake is still and calm with a mirror like reflection of the trees and cottages along the shore. Left feeling peaceful, relaxed and at ease. Enjoying and savoring every moment that passes by.
Overall, I always have a great time kayaking. I love it! My kayak is a wonderful vessel that carries me through the water around the lake to stop at my favorite spot on the rock, where I enjoy jumping off and swim endlessly to my heart’s content. Ending the day with the most extraordinary sunset that just leaves me in awe. I certainly look forward to many more sunsets and adventures in my kayak, whether it be on a lake, river or ocean.
