Michelle had mentioned she would like to do kayaking in the Abel Tasman and I invited myself along. We looked at the weather to decide which day would be the best and chose based on no wind. Well needless to say it was quite windy when Monday arrived and we were off to the Park.
We started with what was supposed to be a 2 hour sea kayaking followed by a 2 hour tramp to Torrent Bay. Luckily the wind was going with us but I was in charge of steering and with the waves I was making an interesting zigzag path. The kayaking only took 40 minutes but I felt like it was all day...especially since this was only three weeks out of my cast.
Almost done with kayaking...showing off the awesome outfitAs I was getting out of the kayak of course I had bad timing and ended up soaking my shorts...and I found out that I had grabbed the wrong pair of leggings that morning so was thankful it was sunny and no people were around!
We took our lunch on a secluded beach listening to the waves and the birds. The walk was amazingly beautiful. I'd been told to go there but I had no idea how amazing it would be and of course the pictures really don't do it justice.
