Just happened upon this video on YouTube. This guy works at the same university as me, but at a different campus. Maybe someday I’ll meet him.
Glorious sunrise! (October 30th)
Around 6 am at Yoshida – took this snap with my cell phone. Once again, I forgot the digital camera. Maybe I am becoming senile? The surf was small when I got in the water. (I was the first surfer to arrive at the beach today – I had to move the barrier so I […]
A grainy day (October 29th)
Here’s how it looked at Yoshida this morning. Another nice morning for taking pictures, not a great day for surfing. Ended up going to Katahama and playing in the shore break. Didn’t take any pictures of Katahama because I only had my cell phone with me. Sorry. Maybe next time!
The weekly session (October 22nd)
The wonderful fall weather continues. Unfortunately, the quality and size of the waves has been quite inconsistent recently. A received an email from Mr. T saying that surfing would be good later in the day. Would his prediction be correct??
Another beautiful Monday! (October 20th)
Traffic was good today and I was able to get to the beach in time to take these sunrise photos: Nice fall weather – looks like another good day for fishing. Would the waves get good before I have to go to work?
Forgot the camera! (October 19th)
The winds were strong and the surf was terrible at Yoshida, Shizunami and Kashima. We decided to check out Omaezaki. I took this grainy picture of Omaezaki (Melon) with my digital camera. Nice looking waves! Unfortunately, there was a Nippon Surfing Association (NSA) contest being held. Tons of surfers were in the water. A little […]
Double Session (October 15th)
Today was Wednesday – my official surf day. I was hoping to have a good outing today. First stop – Yoshida at around 6 am. Not too bad. I caught a fair number of waves. At around 9 am, some more surfers arrived and that Shizunami was even better…
Radio appearance
This was recorded quite a long time ago for Seigakuin University radio with my friend David.   We talked about Canadian culture and some differences between Canada and the United States. It was quite long actually. Click here to listen to our conversation. If you want to brush up your direction-giving skills, listen to David’s lesson […]
National Holiday! (October 13th)
I wasn’t planning on going surfing today – I was kinda tired after the drive back from Ibaraki.  I planned on sleeping in – unfortunately, the alarm clock wasn’t turned off. Once I’m awake, it’s difficult to go back to sleep. Why not go to the beach?
