Two Sundays ago, a group of us went kayaking at Lake Merritt in Oakland. I have not had so much fun in a long, long time! As Becky and I headed out to the middle of the lake, I was simultaneously excited and panicky b/c of the sensation of being so close to the water surface. Despite the fact that I was wearing a life-jacket, it still felt like I was about to fall head first to the bottom of the (artificially shallow) lake. Breezy weather, cool waters, and a certain restrained abandon made kayaking absolutely thrilling... Note: I did not tip over the kayak (though we were perilously close to it several times, thanks to Nene and TA bring to hook their kayak up to ours!). I did not scare Becky too much, either! Yowza!
