Finally the weather settled enough for a trip out on a kayak this week. It looks like we are not doing much in this picture, but to get to the rivermouth it was a hard slog across a bumpy sea into the wind. Anyway, the instructor decided to put us in to one kayak since it would be easier to catch one than two if we drifted! When we got the river, we floated, gently guiding ourselves through the national park waters and observing various species that inhabited it. The high point was the large troop of howler monkeys that followed our progress through the trees and the baby one gripping onto the mother's tail in the tress as in the other picture. Our instructor was called....Rene, short for Reynold I think, he had kayaking down to a full art, but I doubt he could sing the blues!
