After 4 years of living on the Bayou, we finally got in it, or at least on it. We participated in an 8 mile kayak tour which saw us paddle right past our apartment complex. With the heat of the day behind us we set out around 6pm accompanied by our friends Pat & Sam – all up there were 7 kayaks in our group.
It was just an awesome experience kayaking the Bayou towards downtown, taking in sights of greenery, mansions in River Oaks, turtles, snakes (well someone saw one) – but no gators. It was certainly different seeing our neighborhood from a different angle and definitely something I’d love to do again.
With sore butts we climbed back onto terra firma around 8.30pm against the beautiful downtown skyline – a great setting to end a great paddle.
