Kayaking. Seals.

***

Today was the day for our kayak adventure. Conditions were perfect - sunny day, with calm winds and calm waters

Prepping for the paddle. Kitting out in drysuits and neoprene booties

On the zodiac to the kayaking site

Kayaks awaited us at the site. They were pulled up alongside one by one, and we mounted from the zodiac

Gorgeous day for paddling
