Mark and Karen’s Summer Olympics #3

Now the activities really started – an early morning kayak in the Straits from Freshwater Bay, courtesy of AT Kayaking. Somewhere in this picture there’s Kurt, Ginger, and a very lazy bald eagle.

We also saw seals, raccoons, various sea birds – but sadly no otters. Here’s Karen working hard…

In the afternoon, we leapt on mountain bikes and rode a tricky 6-mile descent along a brand new bike trail – built by a good, old-fashioned chain gang from the county jail.

Some hairy bits and I think we fell off at least once – but there were delicious salmonberries to enjoy on the way down (a bit little raspberries but bright yellow). That’s Tammi, our guide.
