The family that surfs together!

We headed out to Narragansett Town Beach on a recent slightly overcast day for our first attempt at surfing! I gulped a bit when we rounded the corner to the beach and I saw the size of the waves, easily 3-5 feet with 5 feet being more frequent. But our instructor assured us that we'd be okay, he would stay close to the kids, and we would all ride a wave before the hour was over. And he was right!

surf's up!

My best ride that was caught on camera:


Julia's a natural surfer. She was super relaxed in the water and on the board, didn't blink as the waves crashed over her head, and kept asking for "one more ride." This video is not her best ride - she caught several waves from crest to the shore but this was the only one captured on video. You can see how casually she gets up - no big deal at all!
