Summertime

Back home the summer is still going on with  nice temperatures. Although some strong winds, kids enjoy themselves with diving in the Gooi lake in Almere.

And others with surfing.

  1. Summertime has much catching up to do after the last two years. I seems to have left the UK judging from the forecast I see. Hopefully there's time yet for a little more good weather yet.

  2. I enjoy summer because everyone seems to love getting out, frolicing about, and enjoying one another. Great middle shot of surfer.

  3. I like the windscreens on the surfer's boards - really nice. Now I have a question. Do they use them in winter on the ice. We do here in Canada - I see them on the lakes n rivers after they have frozen over, sailing along on a blistery, cold day. Great Photos Marianne.

    1. In winter we have ice-sailing (when there is enough ice on open waters}, but they use a kind of catamaran sitting on it with a sail. I have once seen someone on skates with a surf windscreen. He went very fast!

  4. I have always wanted to try that, but I think it would take a lot of practice. I hope that your mild weather continues.

    1. No it wasn't, the sun didn't shine but it was still 24 degrees C, which is summer for us... And the waters here are always grey, not blue.

  6. The water does look chilly Marianne, but I think people who love the sea never seem to notice do they :) hope the sun keeps shining for you.

  7. Yes, it was a bit windy so the windsurfers would have a good time.
