Hello, RPV.
It was the end of last month, but I went windsurfing for the first time in a long time.
I was also heavy-handed, as my follow-up health checkup indicated that I was not getting enough exercise.
The location is Eguchi Beach in the northwestern part of Kagoshima Prefecture.

It took us about 3 hours from Kumamoto City. It has been about a year since I have been sailing here~(^^;);

The day was marked by a weak winter pressure pattern, with a moderate northwesterly monsoon already in the air,

A few local sailors are getting together to change into wetsuits and prepare to sail.

I forgot my digital camera, so these images are from my smartphone.

You're alive, aren't you?" I was teased or encouraged by the local sailors,

With words of encouragement, I too set sail.

It had been a long time since I had been in the water, so I was nervous that I would not be able to ride well, but I managed to enjoy the ride.

But I still can't deny that I don't get enough exercise on a daily basis!

My whole body was on fire after the first round trip, but I managed to get it under control and sailed well enough.

It had been a while since I had surfed, so I decided to take it easy on the offshore gliding and sailing.

And so the local sailors gathered one after another.

I seem to be the only one from outside the prefecture this time.

I was surprised to learn that one of the local sailors was 75 years old.

Well, this hobby is aging, but we can't lose.;

The elderly driver sign on the back door of the car is quite austere.

So the windsurfing season is in full swing.

Reconstruction after the Kumamoto earthquake has progressed well, and this year, we will do our best to

I would like to revive ocean going for the sake of my health!

It is also famous for its beautiful sunsets.

I hope to introduce some local delicacies in my next issue.

See you soon.
