No "call of adventure" for me. Before going on this trip to the Nantahala River, I have to be honest, I wasn't excited at all. First off, school had just started, and summer had just ended, so I really didn't have much time to get excited. Usually for trips, I will pack my bag a couple days before because I am excited to go. However, this was not the case. I packed an hour before I went to bed the night before. I ended up having fun on our trip. I was the worst kayaker though. I think I ran into everyone at least five times. I could not steer that kayak if my life depended on it. So I don't think I will be kayaking much in the future. It was a been there, done that kind of thing.
This trip doesn't complement anything I have learned in school. I wrote that on my second entry. It was an honest comment though. In school, we don't learn to kayak. We learned English, Math, and other subjects that don't have to do with a little boat that is nearly impossible to steer. I must have made these quotes in my journal because I was bitter about my kayaking skills.
