Best Answer

The basic propulsion of a kayak is a double paddle. A kayak is a small, thin boat. The Greenlandic word qajaq is the root of the word kayak. A typical kayak has a covered deck and one or more cockpits, each with space for one paddler.

No, there arent. You just have to do good. Move the stylus left to right very fast when you start. If there is a left turn, move the stylus to the right, If there is a right turn, move your stylus to the left. Keep practicing. It takes a few times before you earn a medal, but you will.


On my sims kingdom how do you get a perplexing paw?

Heyy people! The perplexing paw I think is the really tricky one. Most people get it from the kyaking place so try that first. you got 2 get a medal though. But you can also get it from making Roy Happy. But how I got it was I went up to the mountain and talked to the police guy who was working out and he told me to help Dean (The man with blue hair shivering.) And then you give him a wooden stove then go back to the pollice man and he will give it to you. But try these after getting all the other things. It helped me! Really hope this helped!!! God bless you!


Can you tell us something interesting about yourself?

I am learning to speak another language, I can play the ukulele, I once swam for my city, I have met my favourite band (5 times) I can twirl a baton wich is on fire, I have been to Niagara Falls. I have stayed in a hostel and a 5* hotel. I have camped under the stars in Canada with nothing but a shot gun, I have walked down the street wearing nothing but lycra. My ancestors were pirates, and I can drink like a pirate. I've travelled all over the U.K. I've come face to face with some Hells Angels, I've read War and Peice, I've absailed, I've rock climed, I've jumped off a water fall, I've been canoeing and kyaking, I've cut my own hair, I can and do survive without a mobile phone.


What careers have to do with the bow and arrow?

Archery is an Olympic sport and a popular hobby in some parts of the world. If archery is your interest, then you could pursue a professional career as a full-time competitive archer, or could become a camp counselor or private archery instructor. Many summer and day camps as well as retreat centers in the U.S. have archery ranges and these require a safety supervisor and instructor to be present at all times while the range is in use.You could also take up bowhunting or bowfishing, although the former is somewhat dangerous and the latter somewhat rare. (Shooting a bear with a bow and arrow is very,very risky if you don't take out the heart and kidneys with your first shot, hence the reason most bow hunters carry a backup rifle)There aren't many jobs out there, but if you really love archery, then you will find a job. (Don't expect to get rich doing it though)


You want to travel the world but need a skill or job which can keep your finances up?

Military is a great way to see the world. I spent 8 years in the Air Force and have travelled the world over more than once. Never would have been the places I have been if I haven't done it. I still work as a contractor for the Air Force and still get to travel around. Military paid for all my travels. But, being in the military depends on your age, physical/mental condition, and how much you're willing to sacrifice.Other trades I've seen needed around the world are Language teachers. English is the universal language so you can teach in most countries. Mostly think all you need is a bachelors degree in any major, but a little research can get you in the right direction. I met some language teachers when I was in both S. Korea and in Qatar. Pretty sure they weren't qualified teachers but were educated and willing to spend time in those countries.If you are a quick learner in different languages, I know that tour guides are need in most countries. I work with a lady now that lived in Italy while in the Navy and picked up the language. After a while, she was a tour guide for the city and outdoor recreation (cycling, kyaking, etc.) Good luck.. hope this gives you some ideas.As well, nursing is a well-paying job that you can practice all over the world, because everybody needs health care. I have personally known people who have nursed in India, Africa, and even on cruise ships.
