I love kayaking on weekends. I usually go out to a lake or a spring and just paddle.

Nice, I wish I knew how to kayak. It's pretty interesting considering kayaks were created thousands of years ago by a clan called Inuits aka Eskimos.

Really! I didn't know that. I am guessing they used kayaks for more utilitarian reasons versus recreational?

I think both? But the word kayak originates from the Greendlandic word "qajaq"

What does that word mean?

It means kayak in Greenlandic language which is a small, narrow watercraft designed to propel by the means of a double bladed paddle.

Oh wow, so it literally fits the definition of a kayak...What about canoes? What are the differences between the two?
