Icebreakers
December 21, 2010
After a cold winter night...
...most of the ocean is frozen.
Still gorgeous though - let's go kayaking!
Björn joins me for some ice breaking fun.
Boats left in the water get a "beard"
Cutting the paddle through the icy surface.
The sound of ice cutting and the kayak rumbling through the ice

leaving a trail
absolutely quiet
going for a spin, leaving a trail - accompanied by a gaggle of geese

There's something to be said about winter oceans...
Our trails criss-crossing the water remained all evening.
