Where are those tetrapods?  I know there out there somewhere…

yoshida0806-2

Oh – there they are…  I think another point might be a good idea!

Down the road at Katahama:

A little better?  A few brave stupid people out…

Next stop: Sakai!

sagara 0806-1

Hard to believe that this is like 5 minutes away!

sagara 0806-2 11 am

By 11 am, it looked liked a lake!  (and tons of surfers fighting for the remnants of the typhoon)

[963] A random kayak picture

Date: July 20th, 2009 | Comments : none | Categories: Shizuoka.

I kayak almost every Friday morning before school with the university canoe/kayak club.

Here is a picture that was taken in April.  Mount Fuji is actually in the background but you can’t see it.  Oh well…

miho - river kayak

As you can see, I’m in a river kayak.  To be honest, I don’t really like river kayaks.  I prefer sea kayaks because they seem to be faster and easier to control.

 

[957] July 20th – Ocean Day! Hooray!

A little bit better than yesterday, but not much better.  I debated going to Katahama because of the slight wind.  Some of the weekday locals were also thinking that too.  A few phone calls were made and we decided to stay.

As the tide changed, the waves got better…much better actually.

Here are a few pictures I took during a break around 8:30:

A few of the local longboarders showing how to ride these smaller waves.

Not exactly a good day for surfing…

yoshida0719-1

I think that I can count with my fingers how many waves I caught today… :(

When I was in the parking lot talking, I noticed these two ducks in a large puddle in the middle of the parking lot.

yoshida0719-2

As you can see, they didn’t like having their picture taken and flew away.
