Family Forum / Parenting / Adoption / November 2003form nf.paddling - one more thing I would like to do
We do need a break from the search wars - here is something from my favourite newsgroup for things I would like to do - the kayaking in Newfoundland newsgroup - is there anyone else who thinks the idea of paddling in a 17 foot kayak over humpback whales would be a blast? From time of time, for any of you who like to see pictures of whales up close, Alex McRuer will have pictures posted on the Newfoundland paddling web site of whales passing underneath kayaks.

Did anyone get any photos? > > - Norm Yes on all counts. Four of us. Mary, Darren, Ty and I. I burned up a 24 roll, Ty and Darren also had cameras. The whales were close , one humpback passed under Marys boat directly , just a foot or two clear of it. This was Darrens plan. I just aimed him at a bay. We had a fin whale seen from the beach in Ferryland, Minki everywhere, AND hump back whales. One hump back breached a little ahead of us. >Subject: form nf.paddling - one more thing I would like to do >From: "doug thomas" thomform@iaw.com [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] >Newfoundland newsgroup - is there anyone else who thinks the idea of >paddling in a 17 foot kayak over humpback whales would be a blast Good Lord.

I thought this was going to be a post about S & M. LOL Yes, I was getting a little worried about what types we might be attracting. I'm expecting Ron a MoRon Ron a MoRon Ron, back at any moment soon, to tell us how harmless and important paddling is for good discipline.

Count me in. My son and I tried recreational kayaking on a local river this summer and loved it. I doubt I'll ever get on white water, but I could see a bit of time on the sea. My one and only experience with whales, outside of a theme park, was while salmon fishing on Puget Sound. I could hear them sounding all around the boat, but they were concealed by the fog all night long. I was never sure if what I heard was the boat creaking or the whales singing.

Now that I have started this, here is a link to Alex McRuer's pictures of whales from a kayak http://pages.ivillage.com/mcgruer/id10.html And for those who want to be titillated A Report on Dildo Run http://www.kayakers.nf.ca/dildo_run_report.html Cheers to all > > We do need a break from the search wars - here is something from my > > favourite newsgroup for things I would like to do - the kayaking in [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > http://pages.ivillage.com/mcgruer/id10.html Jesus, b'y, I knows I wouldn't be having a sh.t la. I may be a psychotic adoptee (I recognize the redundancy there), but I wouldn't be going anywhere near a big, bloody whale in an itty bitty little kayak. Tom |
