Quiet / calm weekend

Saturday opted to 'veg' in the house and took lots of naps . It felt weird not rushing out of the house pre-dawn especially on a weekend. I felt lazy,wasting the day and did not even get dressed before noon since honestly I was not sure of what to do with myself.

I thought 'people who do not go out and enjoy outdoors early-predawn really are missing a beautiful part of the day' but that is my thought I know some people are nocturnal and enjoy the nights.

Personally, my favorite way to greet the day is at Lake Fairview watching the sunrise while sculling at Orlando Rowing Club

Shameless plugin ;o)

"Rowing is the best workout that I have done in my life, challenging one cardiovascularly as much as running, works every single muscle - especially the core, but has minimal chance of injury and is low impact."

I chose to do rowing leisurely and not to compete because rowing was my cool-down, balance time almost meditative.


Following are some of the pictures from Lake Fairview of me sculling and others are some pictures I took which might give a glimpse of my view of sculling and the beauty of greeting the day on the water.





















I hope I will be able to get back on the water soon.
Sunday went to the WOT with Penny who has been my cycling buddy since I started cycling about 8 years ago, we did a nice 30 mile ride from Killarney to the Horse Park. I could have gone for another 30 but knew I should not be doing anything long this weekend. I really felt awesome/strong after riding the whole day, getting active makes a huge difference in ones emotional state. Saturday I felt 'BLAH', Sunday I felt ' WHOA ! '
