Up the Gorge, With a Paddle
Guess what I did this morning?
I went kayaking, in Portage Inlet, which is the top of what is known in Victoria as "The Gorge" (not Gorge, but _The_ Gorge). It was wonderful. I love it. It would be perfect if you could take dogs along :)
Many thanks to my friend![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Here's me, looking much more proficient than I felt :)
My friend Sheila, showing me how it should be done.
And me again, looking pleased with myself.

The restaurant in Brentwood (by the ferry dock)rents little boats for $9.00/hour; they are not the best boats, but it is a fun place to paddle.
Ocean River offers and abundance of courses: good way to get out for a paddle AND meet people.

It is reasonably easy to equip a car to take a boat locally, but a friend is necessary to get it up there!
