    漂流的勇士

    周末去了Great Falls National Park hiking。第一次听说Great Falls还有点疑惑,大瀑布不是在Baffulo吗?身临其境了才知道,Great Falls只是一个小小的瀑布,不过位于北维州最贵的富人区,就算是Tiny Falls也等同于Great Falls了。

    坦率地讲,Great Falls National Park的确是个闹中取静的好去处,沿波多马克河,处于维州马州和华府的交界处,驱车二十分钟即可到达,较之著名的仙南渡山谷或者西维州,真是方便了太多。

    这次和一个户外活动Club的成员同行,取道Riverbend National Park的hiking trail切入Great Falls,trail沿着缓缓的波多马克河延伸,绿树成荫,周末hiking的人很多,小小的trail竟然有些拥挤热闹,遇到一组似乎是hiking with dogs,各种各样的狗狗欢快地从我们身边跃过,有一只我最钟爱的Golden Retriever,不知道什么时候可以afford一个带yard的房子再领养一只,嗯,我和LD要努力赚钱!

    Riverbend trail的终点恰好就是瀑布,哗哗的流水声令人很兴奋,大家拥过去看瀑布拍照片,突然一红一白两只kayak出现在上游的水面上,顿时吸引了几乎所有人的注意力。快到瀑布边缘的时候,红色kayak停着等白色kayak来汇合,我们都很惊叹红色kayak可以逆流停在河道上并且不被冲下瀑布。两条kayak汇合之后划到岸边岩石处看不见了,一个朋友说这里挺险的,他们也许要上岸了。大家有点失望正准备离开,红色kayak突然从岩石后面探出头来,奋力滑向瀑布的一侧边缘,滑了一个优美的弧线顺着瀑布飞身跃下,Oh My God,太突然了,我拿相机的手都要颤抖了。白色kayak随后也出动了,从瀑布的另一侧边缘顺着水流跃下,和红色kayak胜利会师。真真是帅就一个字!

    嗯,我跟老黎漂过缅因的level 5 white water rafting,不过,kayak还是没尝试。难度太高了,皮筏艇还可以。而且,我们全部落水了。。。。。

    恩 我和同事讨论过狗狗的问题 一开始的training非常重要 如果家里两口子都上班 我觉得还是不要领养了 尤其golden retriever是运动量比较大的狗 我这个同事一共有过7个狗狗 她都说一开始很难 反正我是退缩了 想养猫 可是周一去了一次医院 我连养猫的想法也放弃了55555

    Xiao: 这种white water的难度大,我不敢漂的,可以漂漂flat water
    Lingming: 我也还在犹豫是不是要领养一只狗狗,怕自己不能给他足够的attention,有没有足够的空间运动,狗狗会抑郁的
    Ying: 让大家confuse了,呵呵,这段white water比较险,据上过kayak课的朋友说,老师第一节课就警告大家不要去Great Falls

    我和严同学还在竞猜照片中哪一个是你呢。严同学说白色Kayak上的人胳膊很粗壮,应该不是你,太男人了。看了看红色的Kayak,也觉得不像啊,所以我们俩都困惑了。。。现在谜团终于揭开了,呵呵。这两人太帅了!!这个rafting比我想象中的漂流惊心动魄多了,也把一直想去rafting的严同学给镇住了。瀑布也很漂亮,有机会的时候要去走走,逛遍国家公园是我和严同学的目标,嘿嘿。
