Costa Rica Surfing, anyone?

Filed under: Uncategorized — Tags: — keebdatabase @ 4:39 am

well I just got back from a rather long vacation of around three weeks give or take a day or two, and had some weird type of delays (I do suggest you don’t fly American Airlines if possible, more on that later). I went to Dade County, Florida and the Bahamas plus St. Kitts, the Dominican Republic and several other islands in the Caribbean area. Generally speaking it was a very nice vacation even in spite of these particular travel issues. On the whole I have decided to go with Northwest Airlines next time since they are better I think. I am happy to be back on Kauai, home sweet home at last. One thing in particular that I am looking forward to doing is returning to surfing, one of my hobbies. On this vacation I visited some areas which have top surfing spots in their own right, such as for instance the small island of Barbados which is in (i think) British West Indies (which has been featured in ‘Surfing’ magazine several times and used to be a setting for some real life Pirates of the Caribbean). This time I did not go because I did not have my surfboard with me, and it costs around as much as the board is worth to take it with me (thanks to the airline carriers fees). You might want to consider taking a Costa rica surf tour or perhaps some sort of costa rica surf trip because I have heard they have some of the best. In addition, they also happen to have a lot of good surf camps in costa rica as well. Anyway, the island of kauai has some truly awesome surfing, and some of the best surfers on the globe, like the Irons’ brothers and Laird Hamilton, to name just a few, happen to be from here. That said however, the surf here is not quite as good as the north shore of Oahu, although it does get just as big, as of course it gets the same wave swells from the stormy Aleutian islands. All in all, the pointed shape of Oahu’s north shore means a better shaped wave for the most part as they roll off the tip. Kauai, for it’s part, has more of a rounded and blunt north shore, sadly enouph, which is not so ideal for wave shape, thus you do not have
the famous Waimea Bays and Pipelines, etc. that the island Oahu is well known for.

Innovative New Service

Filed under: General News — keebdatabase @ 11:34 am

I have been cruising around the country and was checking out some specific items of interest which I have found. All in all, I figured that while I was on the topic in question that I would also throw a bit of an advertisement for an awesome  website.  It is not the first time I have done this and will probably not be the last, especially for a worthy cause such as this.They are an ncnq related photo service and are in fact an exceedingly cool website. It appears that they offer a top flank ministry tool for church staff plus church members as well.
Essentially, they offer a very special and innovative church fundraiser which really has no risk to you whatsoever and furthermore doesn’t even require any kind of investment from your own specific church whatsoever. In actuality it is quite a good deal, in my humble opinion. It is quite cool as I think that you will see. In addition to all of this, folks may recieve a superb 10×13, full color, studio quality family portrait simply for taking part in your church fundraiser overall. It is a really good deal and I do in fact recommend that you take part in the said service if you feeled compelled to.
