Kayaking
What an awesome Sunday it was to go to Crystal River. We rented kayaks and went to the 3 sisters springs. Sarah and I had been talking for so long about going kayaking and we finally made a point to go after Jackie suggested we go. The weather was sunny and breezy. So we met at the kayak rental and began our journey.
It wasn’t too crowded either, even though it is getting to be the season for many people to see the beauty of Citrus County. Glad we could all finally go. Christian and I went together and Jason went with Sabby. Jackie had her own. Rich and Sarah brought their own.
The ride to the spring was with covered trees and shaded. It was a serene trip with Christian.
We followed eachother until we got to the 3 sisters. There are signs everywhere for saving the 3 sisters springs. Three sisters is privately owned and endangered of being sold to a commercial developer. Efforts are being made to buy the land so it can continue as a wildlife refuge.

In case you want to rent kayaks here is the number. LOL.
The water is so beautiful. Jackie was loving it. Christian and I rode around the springs while everyone else was in the water. Then I finally got in. I never go in the water because it’s always too cold for me. The last time I went swimming we went swimming with the manatees and I was so cold and I was chillin for 3 days after. But this time was different and so serene and invigorating.
Everyone had to stand on the fallen tree in the water. Doesn’t it look like a giant pool.
We stayed at the spring for about 2 hours. Then we went for a short ride out to the river but everyone was ready to go home. The only one that wore sunscreen was Jackie. It was a great day and next time we will wear sunscreen.
