Learning to surf

The photographer on the beach was taking photos of a friend of hers who was surfing.  Or trying to surf.  Maybe we will stick with this little series for a few more days to see if the woman was able to ride a wave in to shore.

Lots of people like to learn to surf on Tamarindo beach.  There are many surf schools.  You can choose whether you want small or normal sized waves because half of the beach is partially sheltered by an island and reef that reduces the size of the waves in the southern half o the beach.

Today is Sunday, so we have new photos posted on our  Viva la Voyage travel photo site.  This week we return to Africa, featuring some classic wildlife images.

    The red sail beautifully slashes across the photo.

    Surfing is not as easy as some people make it look. Get back on and try again.

    I've never done wind-surfing but when a kid in L.A., we did a lot of surfing out in Santa Monica. We were too young to know how dangerous some of those waves were!

    A lot of balance necessary for this. I never managed it.

    When my kids were younger, they took some surfing lessons on Bondi beach outside of Sydney. I don't think surfing has become a staple of their existence.
