Ahead, a green metal bridge spans across the calm, reflective river surrounded by bare trees and a dense forest. I take a break from my hike, - READ MORE https://pixels.com/featured/tranquility-at-hardscrabble-scott-loring-davis.html
First day of #whitewater #kayaking in 2025 done!
Lovely weather. Not a lot of water, but enough - and we did a stretch that’s challenging for me, but which became a little easier at this water level.
Tired and happy

quixera preguntar a algunha persoa directamente involucrada en #kayaking e #canoeing , para traducir correctamente ao galego nun programa que usa os dous termos de xeito separado, pero leo na wikipedia que
nalgúns paises europeos úsase de xeito indistinto
e para complicar a cousa parece que ao revés que en inglés (polo menos lendo a wikipedia¹ e as definicións no dicionario ² e ³.
indo á federación galega de piragüismo non parecen estar nestas minucias de definir os tipos de deportes
kayaking, en inglés, parece o que aquí chamamos piragüismo. É dicir, vai sentada a persoa coas pernas estricadas e ten un remo con dúas pas.
canoeing, en inglés, parece o tipo de canoa chamado caiac. Que usan un remo simple, que van en postura máis erguida, polo menos competindo. Pretendo usar remo. Que tamén temós Federación Galega de Remo, pero parecen os traiñeiras.
Fun mirar ao dicionario por mirar, porque total…
Grazas.

"Last Saturday, Adrián Simancas was kayaking with his father, Dell, in Bahía El Águila near the San Isidro Lighthouse in the Strait of Magellan when a humpback whale surfaced, engulfing Adrián and his yellow kayak for a few seconds before letting him go."

Been itching to get out on the water after a couple weeks of sunny days. My wife says the water is still too cold, but there's no ice and I have a wetsuit, so how bad can it be?
Did the bike/kayak thing again. 8 miles of the bike towing the kayak and 6.5 miles of the kayak carrying the bike. I spent the whole day with a big stupid smile on my face. It felt AMAZING to be out there – both on the trails and on the water.
