Davinici Code
Monday night we went with Emily and Nick to see the Davinici code. I thought it was great and didn’t deserve all the bad revues it has received. It wasn’t as good as the book, but no movie ever is. It skipped a lot of the book, but it couldn’t really cover it all or the movie would be crazy long, as it was already 2 1/2 hours.
I was looking through pics on my computer and found some pictures from our wonderful sea Kayaking experience last July in the Bay of Fundy. We started at the pool in the park and started paddling up along the coast towards Point Wolfe. We were suppose to be in singles, but the wind was going to be high so they made us all get in double kayaks, which I’m glad they did.
The wind came up like crazy and then the waves came. We were beside these rock cliffs when two older gentleman’s kayak flipped. The guides were trying like crazy to get them back in and were screaming at us to turn around and head back to the previous beach, which was the Herring Cove Beach. We were suppose to go a lot farther down the coast to a secluded beach for lunch and then paddle back and go under the bridge in alma to the estuary area.
So we all fought our way back through the waves to the beach and waited for the guides and the others to come. The whole time waves were going over the kayak and my arms were wet. I thought we were going to be swept into the cliff a bunch of times. After a nice rest and some lunch we started the daunting task of kayaking back to Alma. We had to fight the wind the whole way back, I was exhausted and thought we’d never make it, but we preserved and made it.
What a day! A great challenge, but definitely worth it.
