SANTA GOES KAYAKING

I have never seen a kayaking Santa or one wearing sunglasses.

I saw a guy kayaking near Spinola and I thought it was my son-in-law, Ian. Behind him there were at least a dozen more kayakers. I phoned him on the cell phone to see if it was really him and he answered and waved back. He came over across the bay to talk to me and behind him came this friend of his dressed as Santa. Even though he shouted his name I couldn’t recognise him.

The 4 stages of life:
1. You believe in Santa Claus
2. You don’t believe in Santa Claus
3. You dress up as Santa Claus
4. You look like Santa Claus
I am now in the third stage.

Thank you very much for looking and for the lovely comments on yesterday's picture. Very much appreciated. We are to expect a power cut today. We have been informed by mobile.

You're right, this is not something you see everyday! I guess if you're reindeer decline to swim through the water, you have to paddle yourself to your destination. Good catch of this holiday kayaker.
