Spring Road Trip

Every so often I go to Florida, my home state, and visit family.  Naturally I try to do a lot of paddling and sailing stuff.  Our first stop this year was in Savannah where we me Nigel Law and his lovely wife Kristen at Savannah Canoe and Kayak.  They were wonderful and friendly!  There shop had a lot of gear for outfitting your boat. Maria got a very large self inflating thigh support. It's the biggest most comfortable thigh support in the world and she has now sworn off pool noodles!

If you are in near Savannah and are interested in paddling, you owe it to yourself to stop at the friendliest shop around:  http://www.savannahcanoeandkayak.com/index.html

Nigel has a great blog here: http://savannahcanoeandkayak.blogspot.com/

The shop has a lot of surf kayaks as well as sea kayaks.  They have more surf kayaks than any shop I've seen and I've seen a lot of paddle shops!

Afterwards we visited another paddling shop on Tybee Island. This shop wasn't interested in us at all and didn't really have much gear. But they did have the full line from SKUK. 

 Later we had dinner at Gerald's Pig and Shrimp. Gerald's Tybee island Shrimp Po Boy is great and so is the Fish Sandwich!   I'd Stop at Gerald's again and again if he was only closer to home. Don't miss it.
