SUP boarding anyone?


One thing I like to do each day is walk for between 30 minutes and 1 hour. This particular day, one of the few mornings we've had here where the Sun has come out was one where I walked further than I usually do down to one of our local bridges where I saw 2 people paddle boarding through the estuary. Water was still, sun was out, what more can you ask for in a Spring day?

Linking up with Skywatch Friday.

He had the whole place to himself. Great shot, Amy!

That's something we have here too, though time is now running short for it this year.

I take a SUP class at a pool where the board is tethered at the ends. It is an excellent workout. I tried it once on open water this past summer and it took a little to get used to the front back balance thing. Great workout.
Excellent photo.

Something I have never tried but I do walk when I get a chance between projects around the house

Well done on the daily walking Amy, such a good way to start or end the day. I bet it's not as easy as it looks the stand up paddle boarding, excellent for the core muscles though 😊

Paddle boarding looks like a fun thing to do on the water. I've seen my kids do it with varying degrees of success.
Great picture ... would love to have that kind of strength and agility!

Auckland Metropolis Museum

In amongt the modern new highrise buildings in Auckland City is this smaller vintage building that is currently for sale (I'd buy it if I had the money).   My research found that:  "It was designed by English-born architect Charles Towle and erected in the early 1930s as the Church of Christ, Scientist, the building's Graeco-Roman facade has towering columns that frame its impressive entranceway, with three ornate timber doors decorated with leadlight inserts providing access to the expansive foyer. Arched ceilings dominate the former congregational high stud space beyond the foyer and numerous picturesque windows provide a light, airy feel and an ambience many office buildings lack. The building housed congregational and Sunday school services for 70 years until it was sold and converted into office space in 2003. A significant refurbishment was also carried out with care taken to ensure that the building's distinctive character remained intact. Special architectural ...

Family

  Photo taken Spring 2024 in Auckland We have been invited to a family reunion in June 2026 which will be held in Auckland so I'm looking forward to catching up with relatives that I haven't seen in over 10 years.  This week we have: Had a good chat with a friend who has also adopted a rescue dog - must arrange a play date. I've bought some non alcoholic liqueurs to mix up for mocktails which have been very nice as I don't really drink. We had a massive wind storm 2 days ago, we were ok but a good friend who lives 20 minutes away had a bolt of lightning strike her house, the result was a blown up power box inside and part of her kitchen got burned, she had to call out the fire brigade to put it out. And I have a question for you; when you add your blog post to a blog meme or a blog link up, do you expect the owner of that blog to at least come back and comment on the other blogs that have linked up to it including yours even if it's only occasionally?  I actually th...

Hail

  Spring is throwing out some strange weather right now. We don't get snow where we live but it is visible on some of the mountains around us over Winter. Last week around 4.30am we had a very loud thunderstorm with hail. It wasn't until an hour or so later my daughter said this is what she saw out on our deck.  Clumps of hail all over the deck and on her hand. Apparently various other suburbs around town got it too.
