Kayaking 45:00 [3] 1.0 mi (45:01 / mi)

Had some time to kill before meeting Lori for sailing trip. So launched the kayak at the beach about 5 miles S of Bayfield. Strong wind from NE gave 2 - 3 foot waves . Unfortunately didn't have my spray cover so playing around in the Lake Superior waves rapidly took on a lot of water ! Went exploring up a small (calm) river , came back out to the waves , took on lots of water, emptied out, had some more fun in waves. Next time I'll make sure I have the spray skirt so I can really play in the surf.
