Rowing Lake Vic
I went down to the fish market in Munyonyo yesterday and bribed a fisherman to let me take his boat out for a row. It was a massive, heavy 4 seater, with rivets that made it sturdier than I expected. There was still the smell of talapia embedded in the wood. Away from the shore, the air was sweet, and the expansive lake opened up in front of me. I past several abandoned islands, noting them for future exploration, and a campsite cum marina that had a few weekenders gearing up for a jaunt in the Lake. The way back was against the current, so I spent most of the time rowing hard and squinting to line the bow up with the point on land that I was aiming for. It was a good two hour row, and certainly left me feeling the ache this morning.
