Last week, as part of my cool summer job, I got to tag along on the kayak portion of one of our guided Exposure trips. There were 6 of us total on this kayak adventure; 2 kiwis, 1 aussie and our 2 guides who are also members of my summer family. Together we kayaked for 3 days and 2 nights and though the weather was rainy wet the whole time, the scenery was beautiful. We were inundated with snow covered mountains, tidal glaciers, seals, otters and bald eagles. The hardest part of the trip was putting on wet clothes in the cold morning (2 minutes of pure discomfort) but the payoff of making new friends and being in the great Alaskan outdoors made it all worth it. Not sure how I'll be able to go back to a desk job after this!
