278/365 A New Experience

I finally consented to give kayaking a try, and today's weather was perfect for it. My thinking is that any sport that doesn't require a helmet can't be all that difficult or dangerous. It was neither, but I still struggled trying to maneuver the paddles without getting wet. Clearly I have not mastered the technique but I will definitely give it another try. PFD aside, I think I'd feel more secure if I knew how to swim.
