What an amazing December day, sunny and calm with probably the clearest waters I've seen off of Morito Beach. I was able to see the bottom the entire paddle out to the Tori Gate.

Lauched from Glass Beach in Tokyo Bay, paddled into Kurihama and headed up Hirasakugawa River quite a bit inland... The sun was rising over the Chiba Peninsula just as I launhed. On the river, saw lots of coy/carp swimming along side my kayak, and on my way back out to Tokyo Bay saw a team of a Kayak Racing Team practicing on the river. Their kayaks were super narrow race style kayaks, definately not sea kayaks.

Went out Kayaking with Ethan, it was his first time out there by himself. He was in the super stable Emotion Guster that was tied to myself in the Waterfield U-Yak (my kayak was already on top of the car for an early Tokyo trip tomorrow). Ethan did really well out there and we both had a blast doing a lap around the Tori Gate.

Did some legit urban kayaking as I finally kayaked Tokyo. Launched from my favorite part of Tokyo at Odaiba and kayaked under the famous Rainbow Bridge. It was really calm in the bay and even calmer in the canals. There are so many different canals to explore, but I stuck to the larger one today that led up the Sumida River near Tokyo Sky Tree. Tokyo is an incredibly busy bustling city, however the water was very peaceful and empty. I only ran accross a handful of boats on the water. Tons of bridges, skyscrapers, traffic, trains and joggers on the shorelines... It was really cool and looking forward to exploring more via Kayak.
