My Suprise!!

For my birthday Ryan surprised me and we went Kayaking. It was so fun to have a surprise again this year. We left the kids with our friend Sara and her kids and left for three hours to Turtle Bay. Ryan has major hook ups at work and so he arranged this all through his work. The guide "Captain", (he was a captain in the military) loaded us all in his Shaka Kayak van and we headed onto private property to Cavella Bay. There we were met with another guide. There were 6 of us total. When they asked who was going to be in the two person kayak I was sure it was going to be us, only to find out it was someone else. I was shocked because as many of you know I have severe anxiety about the ocean. So, I knew this was going to be hard. As they put the kayaks I was still freaking out, but once I hopped in I was having an absolute blast. The kayaks were see through so we could watch all the fish and turtles swimming below us, we even got to see lots of anemone's. It was a blast. We got snacks and went on a nature hike too. The best part for me was seeing the turtle cleaning station area of the ocean because I LOVE turtles. It was so fun also to just spend some time alone with Ryan. What a special present!!!
