Beth decided to start her day sea kayaking around the island (the island is about a mile long), Samuel thought that he would try and swim along with Beth, that didn't last long. Beth (who is a very strong swimmer) had to relinquish her kayak so that the tired Samuel (not as strong of a swimmer as he thought) could rest. Their adventure allowed them to explore the island's coast at their own pace.
If I have the option to take more morning rituals a little slower, I'll take it. The idea of circumnavigating the island piqued my interest and I decided to use a SUP as my mode of transportation. I quickly learned that the local island dogs are eager to join anyone for a cruise as they both hopped on my SUP for a little joy ride. As much as I love dogs and having companions on my outings, they did not make my trip easy. By the time I reach the northern point of the island the dogs had tipped my raft twice. Halfway around the island I gave up with having both dogs and made the rest of my journey with just one. The dog that was left behind followed us the rest of the trip. The sea kayak probably would have been a more stable option, but the SUP gave me a better vantage point to view the activity in the water and on shore. There were large orange starfish scattered along the ocean floor. I saw 3 eagle rays, 5 southern rays, and 2 nurse sharks. It was a successful outing, even with the unexpected dog dunks.
