With this philosophy in mind we headed over to the Marlborough Sounds for some kayaking action as a final trip that was to be the mother of the lot. And so it was.
A team of five hardcore kayakers headed over to the north of the south island for a four day kayaking expedition around the sounds. We covered a total of one squillion kilometres and fought against wild marine life, perilous tides and gipsy witches.
Now, ill admit that this may be a slight embellishment of our actual trip, it isn’t as far from reality as you may be tempted to think. Lisa, Frankie, Halli, Math and I did actually cover a fair distance, the actual number of ks unknown (for now) and we did kayak amongst seals, dolphins, penguin skeletons and other forms of marine life! We did join a tarot reader for dinner and fire in one of our campsites and she did educate us into the world of the occult.
We also played a fair amount of Kayak ball, built up a strong smell of sausage (except Lisa, who only smelt like roses) and generally were extremely hardcore in everything that we did.
The weather was beautiful, and the sea was easy. All in all an excellent trip, so much that I’ve properly caught the kayaking bug, definitely going to take it up more seriously and try to sort out some expeditions!
