Kayak Play Day

18^thJune 2013

The sky was clear, I woke up early in the morning for canoeing course. Tim and I had planned it a month ago, I felt exhilarated to have a chance to learn how to canoeing which maybe one of our important elements to develop our own business.

Course was hold in Chong Hing Water Sport Centre by Leisure Service Department, this was the first time I went there. I used to pass through High Island Reservoir when I went hiking in Sai Kung, I had a lot of fantasies for that sport centre because of its quiet, distant and beautiful landscape. Idiom said” lesson was repeated until you learned’, I didn’t take any sun oil to give my body protection this time even though I got skin burned in a kitesurfing discover course two months ago. I at least didn’t find any skin problem in this moment@@

In order to make a prefect start for this day, we drove there that we could save time on travelling. As a holiday driver, I enjoyed the driving process a lot. It was amazing to drive out for the outdoor activity like this, no wonder people love to drive out with family to everywhere. During the process, I learned that driving manner and alertness was the most important things to a fresh driver, you needed to read cautiously the road situation when you wanted to change line on road and learned to read clearly about the road sign and speed limit in every section on road. I had a valuable driving lesson by teacher Tim, thank to him!

Expected as I was, this course didn’t disappoint me! The tutor, playmates and I really enjoyed it. I can’t imagine that the game was very skillful, I even couldn’t ride it straight on the water surface. Hopefully I can get improvement in the future. Once the course was over, I realized that we misread the game Kayaking as canoeing. One of the main points to differ them is to check if there has a hatch. Kayak does have a hatch which canoe doesn’t. I had a really fantastic day and won’t forget the incident today! I am looking forward to playing Kayak again in the future@@
