Ten Bruises Sustained in the Pursuit of the Perfect Kayak Outing.

1. Large back of the knee bruise from the attempt to perfect mounting the vessel.
2. This will sound rude, but in the pursuit of the above, a bruise to the hoo-haa. The boat moved at an inopportune moment.
3. A very small upper arm bruise: God only knows how it was sustained. It may be a sensitive spot as a similar bruise has subsequently appeared after a no-reason for it outing to a water slide park.
4. An extraordinarily large and incessantly painful and restricting bruise to the backside sustained when falling over in the tumultuous waters and landing on an exposed rock.
5. A twice-knocked killer to the shin. Technically you could possibly say this bruise if the result of an inability to learn a lesson. It was twice done as twice I stood on the shore side of a wave carried boat. I can say that lesson is now well learned.
