Kayak-ing

Some of my neighbors asked if I'd like to go out kayaking with them.  I agreed and they russled up a craft for me to use.  Once we started moving I didn't stop for a couple miles.  I am not an expieranced kayaker and as a result I had to work the whole time just to keep up with the rest of club.  One of the guys was kind enough to hang back with me and his presence made me feel not so much a drag as well as feeling safer.  
It was a long paddle but I really enjoyed the time on the water and I came back to the shore dry and in one piece.  I imagine my sholders will be sore in the morning.
