Canoedling in Khor Kalba
Hi people
A couple of months ago I went canoeing with Dom and Pam (a couple of Norton Rose ruffians) in Khor Kalba, which is claimed to be the largest/oldest/hippest mangrove system in Arabia. It feeds from the Indian Ocean.
It is home to a very rare/almost extinct/endangered kingfisher.
So, with my cousin-to-kookaburra radar set to high, I paddled through the mangrove in search of the elusive little bugger. Everyone on the paddling expedition, except for me, spotted the avian rogue.
Need I tell you it was hot, damn hot. So hot indeed that I burned my bottom on the canoe seat upon re-entry from a river-bank sojourn. Why do they make black canoe seats and then attach them to canoes used in one of the hottest friggin country on earth?
