This very warm sunday, I joined a group of 11 Irish girls and 1 other German couple on a Kayak trip across lake Ontario, to one of the small islands.
If you can imagine 14 people in a long boat (.. oh plus the chap at the back to help steer it in the right direction), all rowing for dear life, for about 45 minutes, that what it was.
The boat looked like one of the ones American Indians row, in old films.
