The Conch

Adventure Blog Roundup

Definitely a wave of water-themed links today.  There are some great videos that are definitely worth a look.

Water Skiing

I’m generally an optimistic guy.  This has been known to wind my friends up no end as I refuse to accept that the world is going to hell in a handcart.  As hard as I try though, I can’t resist posting about a poem on the Creaky Rowboat blog.  Entitled ‘Ode to Winter’, it may well sum up what a lot of us are feeling right now.

Beach Wars

Who are the worst people at the beach?  Anglers?  Kitesurfers?  Jetskiiers?  James’ Douglass makes the case for each activity and indeed those non-adventurous intruders onto our coastline…bloody onlookers!!  There’s a poll too so go and make your voice heard. 

The optimist in me cries "Why can’t we all just get along?"

Windsurfing

Chris Eldridge posted this great freestyle windsurfing video on the Waterlogged by Scooper blog.  These guys have such great control.  I’m really up for trying windsurfing with Club Conch in the next year.  Another activity added to the list.

And to round it off nicely, Groove Armada’s ‘At the River’ just came on the radio.  Are you fond of sand dunes and salty air?  I am.
