Kayaking on the Hudson

Sunday morning, I went for a walk up the riverside just past the pier at 70th St.



and saw something very exciting (and FREE):



kayaks!

I asked these guys what's the dealio? and they said, hop in. "Just don't go to New Jersey."



So I hopped (actually scooted) in and



paddled around the buoyed-off area for about 40 minutes.



Dripping wet from the waist down, and smelling of the eggy Hudson, I disembarked and returned my oar and life jacket. Between the kayaking and the bike ride with Nadette the previous Thursday, I was feeling oddly athletic, so I happily skipped home and ordered roller skates on eBay.
