A Piece of Cake | Cost an Arm and a Leg | Over the Moon | Take It Easy

I don't exercise very often, so I was worried about whether I would be fit enough for kayaking. Fortunately, Oscar told me to take it easy and assured me that everything would be all right.

However, the gear cost me an arm and a leg!
