Another holiday has arrived, we get 2 days off in the middle of the week, just perfect to go paddling. The more I paddle the more I would like to stop working and just spend my days paddling. Exploring new places, teaching new paddlers the basics and getting them hooked on a new sport.
This holiday, Shavout commemorates the receiving of the Ten Commandments while the children of Israel were in the desert.
Not being the religious type, I just enjoy the time off and the way it brings families together for a celebratory meal and a get together.
But back to the sea, today we had strong westerly winds making the outbound trip exciting , fighting the wind and the waves, but the home leg was a wonderful run, catching the waves and playing in the following seas. Of course there was a capsize and a rescue, but that's par for the course in conditions like this.
and tomorrow the sea is expected to be even higher.....great.

| That's the signal...come to me |

| In rough water the group is more disciplined and stays together |
 |
| Time to turn around |
 |
| sisters, can you see the resemblance? |
 |
| Homeward bound with a following sea |

 |
| Almost there and then the sailboats getting ready for the competition later on |
