Kayaking at the La Jolla Caves

Saturday, Sept. 24, 2011 we went kayaking in La Jolla. We got a good Groupon deal on rentals at Hike, Bike, Kayak. There were 16 boys and 6 adults (11 tandum kayaks).  The weather was perfect: a little overcast then the sun came out after we got started.  The surf was small so it was easier to get the kayaks out.  Some of the highlights:

• Seals on the rocks
• Racing to the buoy (all 11 kayaks)
• Dolphins (swimming all around us)
• Leopard Shark and Sting Ray feeding area.  We watched from our kayaks and some of the brave got into the water.
• Kayak surfing (it was mostly flipping kayaks over).

This is definitely an activity we'll be doing again!

Emotion Charades - Combined Activity

Tonight we played "Emotion Charades" for our Mutual combined activity.  We split into groups of 4-6, and first had to identify the emotions shown on faces in several photographs.  Then, a set of cards (each with a different emotion listed) was given and each person in the group had to show the emotions on card.  Finally, the groups photographed the best emotion faces, all the photos were collected and everyone watched the slide show.  Here are some of the best faces:
