Day 285: Windsurfing

 Posted on February 10, 2013      by Erik

Been another relaxing day at the beach. Time just flies when you are not doing anything. The Otress Beach has been very relaxing, has a very lay back atmosphere. Unlike most beach resort locations I’ve been, this beach is minimal with tourist. Kinda like a hidden gem.

Saw a few water activities that I would to try. Been looking at the kiteboarding school just a few steps away from our bungalow. It would be so cool to learn it, and fly on water. But $240 for 3 days lessons is out of my cash budget at the moment.

Instead, I booked a 5 hours  windsurfing rental. Only managed to do just over an hour today. But within the first 10 mins, I managed to sail the board far away from the beach. The things is, I forgot how to sail. Was stuck in the middle of the ocean, and not sure how to turn the board around and head towards the beach. By the end of the day, I managed to head in 2 directions only, while maintaining balance with the sail base on wind direction.

I still have 4 hours of practice, surely I will try the wiki techniques in the next few days.
