pedal boating

i'd never been pedal boating. had wanted to for a long time, and had thought it was gonna happen last year, when we went on our work outing, but it had rained so we'd ended up visiting a fort, which was fine, but not pedal boating.

this summer, i made sure people knew i wanted to go and a couple of them were up for it, so it was just a matter of the good weather coming back and i was set. and finally, today was the day. so S. and i got our pedal boat for an hour and went off on the lake. it was fun! shame the water wasn't warmer, so we could have swam, but what the hell. it was nice to be on the lake, seeing different views, without being surrounded by loads of people (the lakeside is generally swarming with people when the weather's good).
