Indian Arm Kayaking

I love to start my day kayaking. In Vancouver I feel you must take advantage of the hot summer days by being out on the water or in the water. I am definately a water baby. It is a paddling meditation for me. To go out 1st thing in the morning before the boat traffic stirs up the water is ideal. The sun is just cresting over the peaks of the mountain, the seals are slapping the water with their flippers & the water is like glass with the reflection of the sky on the water's smooth surface. The times I am able to kick off the day going paddling for a hour up The Arm I find are my most creative days. We are so fortunate to have this pristine paradise on our door step & for those of us lucky enough to spend time up on The Indian Arm we are blessed indeed.
