Maybe I shouldn’t kayak anymore

We got to Long Island Beach Resort with just enough time to freshen up before a wonderful buffet dinner with so much to choose from it almost left me too full for dessert…. Almost!

After dinner was karaoke time and of course the Scots had us in fits of laughter again with their back up dancing and singing! It was a great night on the island and finally a night in a comfy bed after last night sleeping on deck.

The next day was a free day so of course we made the most of the lie in and then took to the seas for a kayaking adventure… And boy was it an adventure!!

Paige and Fanny took off first in a double kayak then Clare and I later joined them in single kayaks… Although Clare isn’t exactly a natural at kayaking so it took her a little longer than most to get places!! We eventually made it into the middle of the bay somewhere where we took it in turns to stand on our kayaks – Paige and Fanny did a good job and then Clare and I joined forces to try, she managed to balance standing for a whole 3 seconds I’d say before falling in between both our kayaks capsizing myself too!!

By the time I’d managed to get back into my kayak we’d drifted under the jetty and were in danger of drifting out of the allowed zone. Luckily there was a beam under the section of the jetty we were at to stop us going completely through. After we’d managed to stop laughing and Clare had finally got back in the kayak instead of trying to get a lift back to shore we began our kayak back… Although it didn’t take us long to get back to the jetty and this time we didn’t have a beam to hold onto so we got our serious faces on and held back our laughs until we were safely at shore but boy was it hard! Any eye contact risked a fit of laughter at the whole situation!
After the kayaking adventures of Fiji too I’m starting to think maybe I’m cursed!

After the stressful morning kayaking we had a relaxed afternoon in the pool followed by an evening cocktail mixology class
