Today was the second day of Kayak Camp for the kids and today I brought my drone. However, the memory card was not in it so I was not able to capture anything substantial and the images were of low quality. I also have to replace some of the rotors that had gotten chewed up by a tree on a previous flight. I kept getting messages that the rotors were going too fast or something like that. I did not get that message back on the 4th of July. The image below was taken with the drone but sent to my phone it is of lower quality but it does capture the kids looking at the camera and the other kids in their class looking away.
Tonight we had dinner on the beach. My friend Stephanie was supposed to come over for dinner and we were going to do a cook out but plans got changed around a bit and instead we did pizza on the beach thanks to Auntie Tara. We also got the yearly photo of the kids in the Lifeguard chair. They’ve gotten much bigger and so they don’t all fit seated together.
Today the kids went to their first day of Kayak Camp. They are in morning camp for three days with Cape Cod Kayak and are doing their paddling at Monk’s Cove near Monument Beach. I’m not sure if this is Pocasset or Monument Beach. I’m not as familiar with the area but will be going there for three days so We’ll get acquainted with it.
Monk’s Cove Park has walking trails and we were there early so we started with a quick hike through the woods before the class began. Got this really nice image of the kids while we were hiking.
The kids were in a small class. There were three other kids that would be paddling with them. A lone girl and a brother and sister who were close in age to Eva and Andy. Their guide, Justine, was really good and she gave them great instruction and got them out paddling pretty quickly. Allison and I went for a walk around the area while we waited. We did not go back in the woods because it was super buggy and we did not have any spray with us. We’ll have to pick some up for tomorrow. Tomorrow I will fly my drone, it was a tad windy today. I did get some fun video of the kids as they paddled, though.
