And on the other hand, I do love being ON the
water. One of my favorite ways of
exploring a new place is to take a boat ride around it— whether an architecture
river cruise in Chicago, a ferry to Tiburon or Sausalito with views of the
Golden Gate Bridge and the diminished San Francisco skyline, a cruise on the
slow green river below Durham Cathedral, a ferry from Boston down to Cape Cod,
a kayak trip down the irrigation ditch in Kohala, a ride around the San Juan
Islands or to Victoria, BC, a hydrofoil up Lago di Como or from Crete to
Santorini, a rowboat on Wisconsin’s Bone Lake, or a paddlewheeler down the
Mississippi from New Orleans.
Since wristbands have been invented to prevent
seasickness, I can be happy sailing anywhere.
