Not every adventure goes as planned. But learning to be flexible and roll with the punches can make anything into an adventure.

We set out on a kayak trip with the kids for the afternoon. We had done tons of prep and planning. Made dinner in advance, blew up the kayaks, and scouted out our route.
.
Just as we get out on the river, not even 5 minutes in, a huge storm blew in out of nowhere and we had to get out of the water. 🤨
.
As we turned back, the wind picked up and the water became hard to paddle through. One kid started crying and wouldn’t paddle 🤪. The other kid couldn’t paddle without the others help. So we just had to abort and get out at the nearest take out.
.
We finally got the boats back on the truck and drove back to the RV, only to realize we left our cooler bag with our dinner on the bank of the river. We drove all the way back to get it and it was gone. 🤨
.
So we decided to just call in a pizza, find the nearest pretty place to eat and watch the sunset.The kids ended up having a blast playing on the jetty rocks and the sand and we saw a gorgeous rainbow and an amazing sunset!
