Half spluttering, half laughing, I emerged from under the wave. It had been a big one! I turned to see my husband successfully catching it all the way to shore. I gave him a thumbs up and looked for the next set, swelling further out to sea.
It was a magical day for boogie boarding. The sun was warm, but not too hot. The water was clear cerulean blue. And most importantly, the tide was full on high. I spied a beauty rolling in and positioned my body ready. Kick, kick. Legs pumping and then elation, as I felt the lift of my board taking hold.

I love the beauty of the waves, the power in them–and I enjoy watching professional surfers. But you are much braver than I–I’d never try it! 🙂

So sorry I missed this link on the round-up post. It’s been added now 🙂
I love the descriptions in this. I’ve never surfed – my balance is awful on land! – but I love being in the sea. 🙂
